Download The 13th Apostle Christian and Catholic Curriculum Gudes for Teachers
Dear Catholic/Christian School Teacher,
Thanks for choosing The Thirteenth Apostle, by Paul Murphy, for your students.
You will find it a great, engaging book and a wonderful tool for integrating Faith Formation (Religion) with Language Arts and Social Studies, for students from Grades 5-8. Because of the focus on Jesus’ Passion and its aftermath, the book can be an especially effective resource for Lent and the Easter Season. Here are just some of the pedagogical themes:

Discipleship |

The person of Jesus |

|

This Curriculum Guide will help you draw out meaningful discussion, faith sharing, prayer, vocabulary, internet-based research projects, art projects and more for your students. It is somewhat detailed because of the richness and formational potential of Biblical historical fiction. Feel free to choose what works in your classroom.
We sincerely hope you and your students enjoy your time with Gamaliel and his friends as they help you encounter Jesus in a unique way. May God bless you in all you do for children.
Joyce Donahue and Paul Murphy
