There are four basic steps to the Heart of Wisdom teaching approach. The amount of time for each step will vary from a few minutes to a few hours depending on the activities chosen. These four steps teach to all four learning styles and both brain hemispheres. Studies show that this four-step method motivates students to comprehend new material better and retain the information longer. The steps are also an outline to organize the lessons and will occasionally overlap each other.

Explain to your children what a privilege it is for us to know God through Jesus, and how relationships are based on communication. God communicates with us through His Word; we communicate with God through prayer. Before beginning the school day, talk to God through prayer. Devote your day to Him and ask for His blessings. During your studies, stop at any time you have difficulty with a passage. Remember that God promises us wisdom when we ask for it (James 1:5); therefore pray for wisdom. Prayer comes from a humble spirit that is willing to acknowledge need and ask for assistance. Praying shows that you recognize your dependence upon God (Proverbs 11:2; James 3:5–6).
