i haven't posted about our last two verses. i have to say that it has turned into bi-weekly scripture just so that we can slow down a bit, but the kids are still LOVING it and KNOW them all! i have been pleasantly surprised by their memory.... now if those verses would infiltrate our hearts too!!
H was Exodus 20:12 "Honor your father and mother."
i filled a jar with shinny stones and labeled two jars with the kiddos names.
every time they honored mom or dad without having to be asked or told they got to put stones into their glass.
they loved playing with them and hearing them as they were dropped in. however, i only recommend using this activity for a short training period. kids this age have a hard time with volume and i felt like they could not grasp how far away from the top they were (sticker charts show a blank and it is easier for them to tell how much longer).
the letter I was Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." we gazed alot on these two weeks... gazed at flowers, bugs, stars, our skin, the moon, and even animals at the zoo.
we are still on J which is Hebrews 13:8. "Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever." This is a great verse and has been speaking to me in big ways, but i'm having a hard time teaching the concept so that they can understand it. any ideas? please leave me a comment if you have any thoughts!
