<p> Proficiency in language arts and communication skills is essential to success in the global workforce. Most states assess students in language arts literacy (LAL) through standardized tests that assess a student's ability to read, interpret literature, and write expressively.

Abstract:
Several quantitative measures of spiritual well-being were developed with primary and secondary school students and teachers, and university education students, namely the Spiritual Health And Life-Orientation Measure, Feeling Good, Living Life, and the Quality Of Life Influences Survey. Spiritual dissonance was revealed by comparing respondents’ ‘ideals’ with ‘lived experiences’ in four domains of spiritual well-being. Teachers and university education students reported a decline in help being provided in schools to develop the relationships which foster school students’ spiritual well-being.

Abstract:
<p> Sunday School is of the primary educational setting within the Protestant Christian church for teaching the faith and scriptural stories to children.

This study compares this traditional schooling method with that of a multiple intelligences triggered curriculum, especially the spiritual intelligence, curriculum for student engagement with the scriptural stor

One hundred and fifteen second and third grade Anglo and Hispanic boys and girls from an isolated rural town in Arizona were tested on two nonverbal measures of cognitive skills to ascertain their predictive validity and ethnic bias.

The children from both ethnics were roughly equated on SES variables due to the location and nature of the community.
