We've heard all the noise about wanting Grapple for older ages, and we've responded! Introducing Grapple Jr. High this Fall! Grapple Jr. High will release on May 15, 2008 for purchase. It will follow the same online schedule as Grapple preteen. What this means is that your students will be able to begin using MyGrapple.com on August 15, 2008. However, teachers will be able to access MyGrapple.com to register, become familiar with it, and get everything set up for your site.

Both Grapple Preteen and Jr. High focus on age-relevant topics that help kids grapple with important issues that are specific to what they are going through. Both are flexible and integrate the MyGrapple.com Web community.

 

Here’s what makes them different:

 

Grapple Lessons

 

Preteens dig into the Bible to find answers to the tough questions they are asking about  faith, relationships, and the choices they make. Each week they explore several key verses in the Bible that relate to the topic being studied that act to give them a foundation for what the Bible says about these issues. Six weeks out of every quarter, preteens will start their lesson with an engaging discussion-starter video or movie connection.

 

Junior highers dig deeper as they navigate through and find the answers to their biggest questions about relationships with God, themselves, and others. Each week they plunge into the Bible to study one biblical passage that relates to the topic they are studying and end their study with a direct connection to Jesus. Each week, junior highers will start their lesson with an engaging discussion-starter video.

Junior highers will get everything a preteen gets, with a few added extras because they’re getting older and have different interests and needs.
