“Growing in Faith, Growing in Christ creates strong links between home, school, and parish. ” The Assembly of Catholic Bishops of Ontario The Catholic Bishops of Alberta The Catholic Bishops of Saskatchewan The Catholic Bishops of the Northwest Territories The Bishops’ vision for the program is that families will support their children’s learning in school by celebrating their faith together at home. 2

Each grade of Growing in Faith, Growing in Christ includes a website for students (and their families) that is rich in multimedia. Teachers use the Student-Home Website for in-class instruction (small-group, whole class, or individually). 3

Families can use the Student-Home Website to celebrate their faith at home: • Read the digital student book, including bible stories, short fiction, Saint features, and much more • Explore Catholic traditions and practices together • Listen to music (and sing along!) • Watch videos • Play interactive activities • Provide a safe space for children to have screen time 4
