Teacher's Guide | LIFEPAC Overview
STRUCTURE OF THE LIFEPAC CURRICULUM
The LIFEPAC curriculum is conveniently structured to provide one teacher handbook containing teacher support material with answer
keys and ten student worktexts for each subject
at grade levels two through twelve. The worktext format of the LIFEPACs allows the student
to read the textual information and complete
workbook activities all in the same booklet.
The easy to follow LIFEPAC numbering system
lists the grade as the first number(s) and the
last two digits as the number of the series. For
example, the Language Arts LIFEPAC at the 6th
grade level, 5th book in the series would be
LAN0605.
Each LIFEPAC is divided into 3 to 5 sections and
begins with an introduction or overview of the
booklet as well as a series of specific learning
objectives to give a purpose to the study of the
LIFEPAC. The introduction and objectives are
followed by a vocabulary section which may be
found at the beginning of each section at the
lower levels, at the beginning of the LIFEPAC
in the middle grades, or in the glossary at the
high school level. Vocabulary words are used
to develop word recognition and should not be
confused with the spelling words introduced
later in the LIFEPAC. The student should learn
all vocabulary words before working the LIFEPAC sections to improve comprehension, retention, and reading skills.
Each activity or written assignment has a number for easy identification, such as 1.1. The first
number corresponds to the LIFEPAC section
and the number to the right of the decimal is
the number of the activity.
Teacher checkpoints, which are essential to
maintain quality learning, are found at various
12
locations throughout the LIFEPAC. The teacher
should check 1) neatness of work and penmanship, 2) quality of understanding (tested with
a short oral quiz), 3) thoroughness of answers
(complete sentences and paragraphs, correct
spelling, etc.), 4) completion of activities (no
blank spaces), and 5) accuracy of answers
as compared to the answer key (all answers
correct).
The self test questions are also number coded
for easy reference. For example, 2.015 means
that this is the 15th question in the self test of
Section 2: . The first number corresponds to the
LIFEPAC section, the zero indicates that it is a
self test question, and the number to the right
of the zero the question number.
The LIFEPAC test is packaged at the centerfold
of each LIFEPAC. It should be removed and put
aside before giving the booklet to the student
for study.
Answer and test keys have the same numbering system as the LIFEPACs and appear
throughout this handbook. The student may be
given access to the answer keys (not the test
keys) under teacher supervision so that he can
score his own work.
A thorough study of the Curriculum Overview
by the teacher before instruction begins is
essential to the success of the student. The
teacher should become familiar with expected
skill mastery and understand how these grade
level skills fit into the overall skill development
of the curriculum. The teacher should also preview the objectives that appear at the beginning of each LIFEPAC for additional preparation
and planning.
LIFEPAC Overview | Teacher's Guide
TEST SCORING AND GRADING
Answer keys and test keys give examples of correct answers. They convey the idea, but the student may use many ways to express a correct answer. The teacher should check for the essence
of the answer, not for the exact wording. Many questions are high level and require thinking and
creativity on the part of the student. Each answer should be scored based on whether or not the
main idea written by the student matches the model example. “Any Order” or “Either Order” in a
key indicates that no particular order is necessary to be correct.
Most self tests and LIFEPAC tests at the lower elementary levels are scored at 1 point per answer;
however, the upper levels may have a point system awarding 2 to 5 points for various answers or
questions. Further, the total test points will vary; they may not always equal 100 points. They may
be 78, 85, 100, 105, etc.

72

A score box similar to ex. 1 above is located at the end of each self test and on the front of the
LIFEPAC test. The bottom score, 72, represents the total number of points possible on the test.
The upper score, 58, represents the number of points your student will need to receive an 80% or
passing grade. If you wish to establish the exact percentage that your student has achieved, find
the total points of his correct answers and divide it by the bottom number (in this case 72.) For
example, if your student has a point total of 65, divide 65 by 72 for a grade of 90%. Referring to ex.
2, on a test with a total of 105 possible points, the student would have to receive a minimum of 84
correct points for an 80% or passing grade. If your student has received 93 points, simply divide
the 93 by 105 for a percentage grade of 89%. Students who receive a score below 80% should
review the LIFEPAC and retest using the appropriate Alternate Test found in the Teacher’s Guide.

Teacher's Guide | LIFEPAC Overview
The following is a guideline to assign letter grades for completed LIFEPACs based on a maximum
total score of 100 points.
Example:
LIFEPAC Test =
60% of the Total Score (or percent grade)
Self Test
=
25% of the Total Score (average percent of self tests)
Reports =
10% or 10* points per LIFEPAC
Oral Work =
5% or 5* points per LIFEPAC
*Determined by the teacher’s subjective evaluation of the student’s daily work.
Example:
LIFEPAC Test Score
=
92% 92 x .60 = 55 points
Self Test Average
=
90% 90 x .25 = 23 points
Reports
= 8 points
Oral Work
= 4 points

TEACHER HINTS AND STUDYING TECHNIQUES
LIFEPAC Activities are written to check the level of understanding of the preceding text. The
student may look back to the text as necessary to complete these activities; however, a student
should never attempt to do the activities without reading (studying) the text first. Self tests and
LIFEPAC tests are never open book tests.
Language arts activities (skill integration) often appear within other subject curriculum. The purpose is to give the student an opportunity to test his skill mastery outside of the context in which
it was presented. Writing complete answers (paragraphs) to some questions is an integral part
of the LIFEPAC Curriculum in all subjects. This builds communication and organization skills,
increases understanding and retention of ideas, and helps enforce good penmanship. Complete
sentences should be encouraged for this type of activity. Obviously, single words or phrases do
not meet the intent of the activity, since multiple lines are given for the response.
Review is essential to student success. Time invested in review where review is suggested will be
time saved in correcting errors later. Self tests, unlike the section activities, are closed book. This
procedure helps to identify weaknesses before they become too great to overcome. Certain objectives from self tests are cumulative and test previous sections; therefore, good preparation for a
self test must include all material studied up to that testing point.
The following procedure checklist has been found to be successful in developing good study habits in the LIFEPAC curriculum.
1. Read the introduction and Table of
Contents.
2. Read the objectives.
3. Recite and study the entire vocabulary
(glossary) list.
4. Study each section as follows:
a. Read the introduction and study the
section objectives.
b. Read all the text for the entire
section, but answer none of the
activities.
c. Return to the beginning of the section and memorize each vocabulary
word and definition.
d. Reread the section, complete the
activities, check the answers with
the answer key, correct all errors,
and have the teacher check.
e. Read the self test but do not answer
the questions.
f. Go to the beginning of the first
section and reread the text and
answers to the activities up to the
self test you have not yet done.
g. Answer the questions to the self
test without looking back.
h. Have the self test checked by the
teacher.
i. Correct the self test and have the
teacher check the corrections.
j. Repeat steps a–i for each section.
5. Use the SQ3R method to prepare for the
LIFEPAC test.
Scan the whole LIFEPAC.
Question yourself on the objectives.
Read the whole LIFEPAC again.
Recite through an oral examination.
Review weak areas
6. Take the LIFEPAC test as a closed book
test.
7. LIFEPAC tests are administered and
scored under direct teacher supervision. Students who receive scores below
80% should review the LIFEPAC using
the SQ3R study method and take the
Alternate Test located in the Teacher
Handbook. The final test grade may be
the grade on the Alternate Test or an
average of the grades from the original
LIFEPAC test and the Alternate Test.

Teacher's Guide | LIFEPAC Overview
GOAL SETTING AND SCHEDULES
Each school must develop its own schedule,
because no single set of procedures will fit
every situation. The following is an example
of a daily schedule that includes the five LIFEPAC subjects as well as time slotted for special
activities.
Possible Daily Schedule
8:15 – 8:25 Pledges, prayer, songs,
devotions, etc.
8:25 – 9:10 Bible
9:10 – 9:55 Language Arts
9:55 – 10:15 Recess (juice break)
10:15 – 11:00 Math
11:00 – 11:45 History & Geography
11:45 – 12:30 Lunch, recess, quiet time
12:30 – 1:15 1:15 – Science
Drill, remedial work, enrichment*
*Enrichment: Computer time, physical education, field trips,
fun reading, games and puzzles, family business, hobbies,
resource persons, guests, crafts, creative work, electives,
music appreciation, projects.
Basically, two factors need to be considered
when assigning work to a student in the LIFEPAC curriculum.
The first is time. An average of 45 minutes
should be devoted to each subject, each day.
Remember, this is only an average. Because
of extenuating circumstances a student may
spend only 15 minutes on a subject one day
and the next day spend 90 minutes on the
same subject.
16
The second factor is the number of pages to
be worked in each subject. A single LIFEPAC
is designed to take 3 to 4 weeks to complete.
Allowing about 3-4 days for LIFEPAC introduction, review, and tests, the student has
approximately 15 days to complete the LIFEPAC
pages. Simply take the number of pages in the
LIFEPAC, divide it by 15 and you will have the
number of pages that must be completed on
a daily basis to keep the student on schedule.
For example, a LIFEPAC containing 45 pages
will require 3 completed pages per day. Again,
this is only an average. While working a 45 page
LIFEPAC, the student may complete only 1 page
the first day if the text has a lot of activities or
reports, but go on to complete 5 pages the next
day.
Long range planning requires some organization. Because the traditional school year originates in the early fall of one year and continues
to late spring of the following year, a calendar
should be devised that covers this period of
time. Approximate beginning and completion
dates can be noted on the calendar as well as
special occasions such as holidays, vacations
and birthdays. Since each LIFEPAC takes 3-4
weeks or eighteen days to complete, it should
take about 180 school days to finish a set of ten
LIFEPACs. Starting at the beginning school date,
mark off eighteen school days on the calendar
and that will become the targeted completion
date for the first LIFEPAC. Continue marking
the calendar until you have established dates
for the remaining nine LIFEPACs making adjustments for previously noted holidays and vacations. If all five subjects are being used, the ten
established target dates should be the same for
the LIFEPACs in each subject.

TEACHING SUPPLEMENTS
The sample weekly lesson plan and student
grading sheet forms are included in this section
as teacher support materials and may be duplicated at the convenience of the teacher.
The student grading sheet is provided for those
who desire to follow the suggested guidelines
for assignment of letter grades as previously
discussed. The student’s self test scores should
be posted as percentage grades. When the
LIFEPAC is completed the teacher should average the self test grades, multiply the average
by .25 and post the points in the box marked
self test points. The LIFEPAC percentage grade
should be multiplied by .60 and posted. Next,
the teacher should award and post points for
written reports and oral work. A report may be
any type of written work assigned to the student whether it is a LIFEPAC or additional learning activity. Oral work includes the student’s
ability to respond orally to questions which
may or may not be related to LIFEPAC activities or any type of oral report assigned by the
teacher. The points may then be totaled and a
final grade entered along with the date that the
LIFEPAC was completed.
18
The Student Record Book, which was specifically designed for use with the Alpha Omega
curriculum, provides space to record weekly
progress for one student over a nine week
period as well as a place to post self test and
LIFEPAC scores. The Student Record Books are
available through the current Alpha Omega
catalog; however, unlike the enclosed forms,
these books are not for duplication and should
be purchased in sets of four to cover a full academic year.
This section of the language arts Teacher's
Guide also includes a Book Report Form, a Books
Read Chart, and the Index of Concepts. The
Book Report Form and the Books Read Chart
may be duplicated for individual student use.
The Index of Concepts is a quick reference
guide for the teacher who may be looking for a
rule or explanation that applies to a particular
concept. It does not identify each use of the
concept in the various LIFEPACs. The concepts
change by grade level with the emphasis on
phonics and reading skills for younger students
changing to spelling and grammar for the older
students.

Teacher's Guide | LIFEPAC Overview
INSTRUCTIONS FOR LANGUAGE ARTS
The LIFEPAC curriculum from grades two
through twelve is structured so that the daily
instructional material is written directly into the
LIFEPACs. The student is encouraged to read
and follow this instructional material in order to
develop independent study habits. The teacher
should introduce the LIFEPAC to the student,
set a required completion schedule, complete
teacher checks, be available for questions
regarding both content and procedures, administer and grade tests, and develop additional
learning activities as desired. Teachers working
with several students may schedule their time
so that students are assigned to a quiet work
activity when it is necessary to spend instructional time with one particular student.
Language arts includes those subjects that
develop students’ communication skills. The
LIFEPAC approach to combining reading,
spelling, penmanship, composition, grammar,
speech and literature in a single unit allows the
teacher to integrate the study of these various
language arts subject areas. The variety and
scope of the curriculum may make it difficult
for students to complete the required material
within the suggested daily scheduled time of
fortyfive minutes. Spelling, book reports and
various forms of composition may need to be
completed during the afternoon enrichment
period.
Cursive handwriting is introduced in the second grade LIFEPAC 208, with regular practice
26
following in subsequent LIFEPACs. Diacritical
markings are defined in the third grade LIFEPAC
304. A pronunciation key including diacritical
markings is provided after the vocabulary word
lists in all subjects beginning with LIFEPAC 305.
This section of the language arts Teacher's
Guide includes the following teacher aids for
each unit: Suggested and Required Material (supplies), Additional Learning Activities,
Answer Keys, Alternate LIFEPAC Tests, and
LIFEPAC Spelling Tests.
Spelling tests contained in the Teacher’s Guide
are final spelling tests and should be administered with each Language Arts LIFEPAC test.
Many words such as `piece’ and `peace’ are
dependent on meaning for correct spelling.
By placing the spelling words in sentences,
the spelling tests simplify the teacher’s work
of properly presenting the correct words from
the LIFEPAC spelling lists. The practice spelling
tests in each section of each LIFEPAC should be
designed by the teacher and are not included in
this Guide.
The materials section refers only to LIFEPAC
materials and does not include materials which
may be needed for the additional learning
activities. Additional learning activities provide
a change from the daily school routine, encourage the student’s interest in learning and may
be used as a reward for good study habits.

3. Use maps to pinpoint good sheep grazing areas. Color in national forest areas and mountainous regions. Collect pictures of sheep to be used on the map.
4. Group students in teams of two. Assign each pair of students two things to compare and
contrast. Keep the assignments simple. For example, have the teams compare such items
as hamburgers and hot dogs, or summertime activities with winter activities. Have each
team stand before the class and orally present their statements describing their comparison/contrast assignment.
5. Using a Bible concordance, have the class make a list or chart of famous Bible shepherds.
Begin the list with Abel. Include Moses, Joseph, and others who at one time tended sheep.
Make a game, “Can You Name the Shepherd?” by telling a few facts about each shepherd
and having the class identify him.
6. Make a chart with a sheep surrounded by its enemies. Include pictures of foxes, dogs,
eagles, gullies.
7. Write two or three paragraphs comparing or contrasting David in the Bible with David in The

Me, I Will Follow.”
3. Have a discussion panel of students tell of comparable dangers for animal sheep and for
Christians who become sheep of His pasture. For example, as sheep are endangered by
the wolf, Christians are often endangered by false prophets who would lead them astray by
teaching false doctrines.
