At Resurrection Resources we understand that the home school family often has only one income and many students. For educational materials that succeed in the home school classroom and the private school classroom, you can count on us! Resurrection Resources is committed to providing results-oriented
and affordable learning materials. When you purchase our textbooks and workbooks they come with many added features. Other publishers charge you a separate price for daily lesson plans, quizzes, tests, answers, maps, lab kits, and manipulatives. Our
English, math, science, and writing courses contain many of these items and more, such as grading charts and editing charts. We include these extras in one low price to fit most budgets. Compare for yourself!Our textbooks, workbooks, and supplies are developed employing one-on-one teaching that effectively discovers how a student learns and what a student needs to learn. They are created by experienced and knowledgeable educators to be understandable for all types of students in each grade level. They produce incremental growth in skills and subject comprehension as well as measurable results. Our textbooks and workbooks also work to produce a whole-brain learning experience so that a student is not left with lopsided skills leading to future career handicaps. Additionally, our consumable textbook format is a powerful tool enabling better learning comprehension and retention as well as providing the perfect teacher for the independent learner.
Our dynamically prepared textbooks/workbooks are in touch with today's standards and different student learning styles. We accomplish this by offering two types of educational materials that you can mix and match to insure that each student is keeping pace with his/her learning abilities. Our GRADESMART (grades K-6 and 7-12) books give you the assurance that you have exactly the right
textbook/workbook for the grade level that your student has reached. Our PACESETTER (grades K-6 and 7-12) books give you the flexibility to introduce a subject that meets the unique educational pace of your student.
WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT?
Our products are different because they
are written by qualified and highly educated teachers who have worked
one-on-one with students over many years. The benefit of this personal
method of teaching is that it truly gets at the heart of how a student
learns what he/she needs to learn. From this specialized interaction, we
are able to create textbooks, workbooks, and educational products that
can connect with each student.
Through a combination of
textbooks/workbooks, consumable textbooks, and "hands-on" products, our
school subjects are designed so that long after a lecture is over or a
textbook reading is assigned, your student will still have a tutor built
right into his/her curriculum. This enhances a student's educational
success, whether in the classroom or at home.
WHY DO OUR PRODUCTS WORK SO WELL?
Textbooks in classrooms often change in
style and methodology from year to year as a school chooses different
publishers for different subjects. This strategy may result from many
financial or situational issues but does not always work to produce an
effective educational result.
Consider the many students who never
learn to write (or write well) because of a patchwork of textbook and
teacher styles that have no continuous thread of methodology behind
them. Consider the textbook that uses a "scatter" method of teaching,
where a concept is introduced only intermittently throughout the book.
Then there are students who are ill-prepared for science because the
complexities of science are not learned in a continual, gradual,
step-by-step process.
There is also the philosophy of allowing
students to excel in the subjects, in which they show interest or
ability, leaving other subjects to atrophy. For all of these students,
the educational result produces unbalanced, poorly trained students who
at best may have lopsided skills and at worse may be failing in school,
but in reality the students may have very good aptitudes to learn.
Our textbooks are thorough, well-thought
out, and built on a careful methodology of teaching one step at a time.
By integrating several learning styles and skills, each workbook/worktext
is written to create balance in the student. For instance, our science
and math not only teach math and problem-solving skills, but also
enhance vocabulary, writing, reading, and language process skills.
Similarly, our English and history add balance to a student by
integrating logic, focusing on reality, and employing incremental
learning skills, as well as other non-humanities skills. Because of this
approach, our educational materials work hard to create balanced
students who are better equipped to enter the job market or higher
education and to succeed.
WHY ARE WE SCRIPTURALLY SOUND?
We work hard to keep our textbooks,
workbooks, and products free of worldly ideas, philosophies, and
practices while we strive for each item to accurately handle the Word
with maturity and balance. The miracle of the Resurrection and
justification through faith in the Messiah are pivotal. All of our
personnel are mature born-again believers who not only have years of
accumulated Scripture study, but also decades of walking with Him in the
application and teaching of His truth.
Our policy in preparing teaching and
educational materials is to present and teach the truth of both the New
Testament and Old Testament in an understandable, friendly format. This
policy includes preparing school subjects so that your student is guided
to discover Scriptural truth through interactive exercises as it is
being taught. The maturity of our writers and editors, as well as their
wisdom and depth of understanding the believer's walk, is also reflected
in the contents of each course of study. Whether teaching character,
wisdom, behavior, or knowledge, our books consistently present our
heavenly Father's perspective, thereby building a firm foundation of
Scriptural truth in your student for his/her edification and maturation.

HOW TO WRITE LAB REPORTS
Organization, analysis, and good writing
are important skills for all students to master. Learning to experiment
and write lab reports is not just a course that will transform a science
student's writing. Humanities students, as well, will benefit
tremendously from the organizational skills and logical thinking
processes that change a paper from a flurry of thoughts into an
articulate and well presented paper.
This easy-to-use workbook teaches your
inquisitive student how to write science lab reports in a step-by-step
format. The introductory sections include: What is a lab report? What
are the elements of a lab report? What is the scientific method? What
experiment/science project should be chosen? Click
