SEX AND SEXUALITY (FOR GRADE 9, THE AGE OF AWAKENING)

The book series is all about education in human sexuality, based on the nourishment and cultivation of the natural gift of a person’s character. The series is based on the premise that SEXUALITY EDUCATION is, basically, CHARACTER EDUCATION, which in turn is founded on human dignity and encompasses formation in moral standards and human conduct; hence, covering the key elements of “life and love, and everything in between”.

Comprising an introductory volume for parents and teachers; a volume for classroom use of teachers; a volume for parents; and eight volumes for Grades 5 to 12, respectively, this current volume is specifically addressed to Grade 6 pupils, about 15 to 16 years of age in their middle adolescence. It talks about SEX AND SEXUALITY: the beautiful gift of sex and sexuality; freedom and responsibility as applied to these powers; the challenges confronting today’s sexualized world; and developing and maturing in one’s sexuality. Sex and sexuality comprise the most intimate aspects of one’s person hood. The two complementary elements build and shape a future family towards “love, life, and everything in between”.

The book series is characterized by sound, perennial concepts and by teaching and learning tools geared towards the age group being addressed.
