570-Learning Family Values

570-Values

The seven Learning Family Values are universal, built upon common principles found in nearly every culture in the world. Identifying our values clearly can help guide us to becoming the people we want to be. Our values tell others what kind of people we are, and can help them understand our actions.

Each value provides specific encouragement and direction. Together, they help us realize individual happiness and collective peace. We encourage all Learning Families to memorize these values, and put them into practice. The values are the topic of the first activity in the Learning Family Academy.

There are three versions of the Learning Family Values, so each family member can learn at their own level:

  • Students (ages through 8 yrs)
  • Scholars (ages 9-13)
  • Masters (ages 14+)

This is the first achievement in the Learning Family Academy. Find the checklist on the back page and follow the instructions. This activity should take your family two to three weeks to complete spending only about 5-10 minutes a day.

 

Member families are encouraged to spend at least three hours each week in a family learning activity. The Academy is designed to help fulfill that goal.
