You’ll be giving your students an excellent education from a Christian perspective.

no better curriculum

I love ABEKA. There is no better curriculum. My kindergarten class is reading on a 1st and 2nd grade level. Their math and science skills are out of this world.

Experience You Don’t Have to Earn the Hard Way

When you open a textbook or a lesson plan, you’re seeing decades of teaching experience poured out on the pages.

The gifted teachers who develop every Abeka product understand that teachers are often asked to teach a new subject… a new grade… or a new curriculum.

Carefully Creafted Content

When that happens, you might have questions like this:

How do you teach short and long vowel sounds to a 5-year-old?

How do you explain how to write a research paper in a way that’s not overwhelming?

How do you switch from teaching K4 to 4th grade to 7th-grade English—and speak “their language” in every grade?

We’ll show you.

Through every age and in every subject, you’ll have support.

a step-by-step process

I love Abeka phonics because it’s a step-by-step process. The Abeka curriculum will allow you to teach vowels and sounds, consonants, and blend them. And because it’s a step-by-step process, that’s how I teach it. It’s a journey and we’re going to do it together step by step. And it may seem hard. But when you get up here you’ll be reading. Abeka allows me to do that with a very very high success rate.

keeps it fresh

I’m sold on Abeka curriculum—how it’s laid out, how you teach it. I teach math this year, and I love how it teaches this principle, this method. And then, in the homework, everything that I’ve taught just comes up again so it constantly reminds students of what they’ve learned, keeps it fresh.

Biblical Foundations & Content

Our philosophy doesn’t come from what sounds good or from what other people are doing right now. Instead, our teacher-led, character-building philosophy comes from a biblical foundation—Proverbs 22:6a, “Train up a child in the way he should go.”

Because you’re in the driver’s seat, not your students, it means they’re not running you.

You’re leading them.

There’s structure and organization because that helps students know what to expect—and what’s expected of them—but also because 1 Corinthians 14:40 says, “Let all things be done decently and in order.”

In history, you see God’s hand. In science, you see His design. In grammar, you see His order.

Every subject is approached from a Christian perspective, and you’ll find Scripture and biblical principles used to emphasize or illustrate concepts.

biblical perspective

Most important to us is not just the academic aspect, but the biblical worldview and the biblical perspective. Our Christian school really wants to maintain that—that distinctiveness even in the curriculum that we present to our students.
Peter S.

love for God

With any Abeka curriculum I’m getting in there a love for God, this wonderful God that we serve. Along with the academics of it, there’s this wonderful spiritual side that allows me to plant a seed of who God is in the heart of the 4- or 5- year-old that hopefully later on someone will water it and cultivate.

No Guinea Pigs

No Guinea Pigs

We don’t use any method or materials that haven’t been proven over time—and with children of all different learning abilities.

Your students and teachers won’t be guinea pigs for new educational fads.

Do we test new textbooks and lesson plans before we print them for you? ABSOLUTELY.

We start with proven teaching methods and a biblical philosophy when we develop content. Every time, we go through an extensive research and development process before we consider material good enough for you and your school.

A Balance Between Life & Teaching

You can teach with Abeka and have a life.

You don’t have to write your own tests, quizzes, or lesson plans. Teaching aids are already done for you—and they’re professional quality you can use year after year.

With digital teaching aids, you don’t even have to write out seatwork or make your own transparencies and maps.

Administrators, what if you don’t have enough teachers right now? Or you need substitute teachers?

Methods that Make Your Job Easier

Methods Make Job Easier

Do you recognize the terms spiral approach, learning preferences, and cross-subject integration?

Read on for some quick explanations and—more importantly—to find out why those methods make your job easier.

  • Abeka’s spiral approach—building from the simple to the complex, with frequent review and application within each grade and from grade to grade.
    • This means you prevent learning gaps from the first day you teach with Abeka until the last.
    • The work you put in now pays off later.
    • Since repetition is the key to learning, concepts are truly learned—and remembered.
    • Because concepts aren’t presented just one time, or in one way, it means you’re giving your students multiple opportunities to be successful.
    • Rough days are less stressful when you realize you don’t have just ONE CHANCE to make sure your entire class understands a concept.
  • Learning preferences—when faced with the 3 major learning styles (auditory, visual, and kinesthetic, or hearing, seeing, and doing), learning preferences are how you prefer, if given a choice, to learn something. Instead of favoring 1 and neglecting the others, we incorporate all 3.
    • By using all 3, you’re teaching your students to be adaptable, resilient learners.
    • You’re preparing them for college and real life.
    • You’re doing what the best teachers do to help their students learn.
  • Cross-subject integration—pulling in concepts from 1 subject into several others to reinforce understanding and tie learning together.
    • Learning comes to life more with cross-subject integration (like when students learn about Abraham Lincoln in history, read about him in language arts, do a project with pennies and top hats in art, and write a story using what they know).
    • Students feel a sense of familiarity and accomplishment when they see something they’ve already learned (like spelling words) “pop up” in another subject (like science or literature). They’re set up to succeed.
    • It engages curiosity and emphasizes the big picture.

You’ll find age-appropriate content presented in manageable amounts.

The Best of Both Worlds

You can count on high academics AND a biblical worldview so your students aren’t left half prepared to make a difference in the world.

When you combine our curriculum with your commitment, you’ll be enabling students to do anything God asks them to do.

Best of Both

Immeasurable Value without a Hefty Price Tag

If God calls you to work in a Christian school, following His plan is priceless.

You’re willing to sacrifice to get the best for your students and teachers, but money doesn’t grow on trees.

Your Savings with Effective Teaching Materials

Your one-time investment will pay off for years—both in the results you’ll see and in the mileage you’ll get out of your reusable materials.

Take 1st grade as an example. If you choose the total teaching package, it’s everything called for in the lesson plans at a 20% discount—$855.25.

If you only use your materials for one year, that’s just $5.03 per day.
