Special Needs

Coming Soon

Finding God is a new program that St. Benedict Parish will begin using for the 2019-2020 academic year.

See the information below.

Anyone who works with children knows that each child is unique, with his or her own special talents and abilities. And when a child has special needs, it’s even more important to teach to a child’s strengths. Recognizing a child’s uniqueness sometimes requires adaptations to typical learning situations. Adaptive Finding God provides an answer and leads with this idea in mind: It all begins with the child.

Adaptive Finding God is the foremost program of its kind, offering faith formation for children with special needs, and adaptable to a variety of settings and situations. Adaptive Finding God can be used in conjunction with the Finding God grade-level books or as a stand-alone program for parishes, schools, and at home.

Program Benefits

• Meaningful catechesis: Adaptive Finding God provides catechists, teachers, and parents with the tools and guidance to offer meaningful catechesis for all children.

• Multisensory learning: Loyola Learning Tools™ enhance lessons by serving children’s different strengths and abilities.

• Builds on strengths: Respects children and those who serve them by recognizing and building on each child’s gifts and providing support to build on strengths.
