25 Days of Homeschool in the books..



It is hard to believe that we have done 25 days of school already! The kids are doing really well and learning all kinds of new things. Abigail is working on her letters, colors, shapes and numbers. Claire likes coloring and stacking. The boys really like science and math. We have been studying the milky way...stars, planets, constellations. I had them watch Louie Giglios talk "Indescribable" and "Symphony" from the passion series and they really liked them! They tied in so well with our lessons on how Big and awesome our God is and how He made all things. They loved "Symphony" best because he puts some stars and whales singing together to the song How Great is Our God and it is really amazing. The boys have written their second story about a dog saving a little boy. The girls really enjoy them reading to them at story time. We have learned three verses so far:
1- John 8:12 "I am the light of the world, whoever follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life."
2- John 3:30 "He must become more important, I must become less important."
3- 1 Thessalonians 5:11 "Be kind to one another and build each other up." The pictures above are the kids drawing a picture of this verse and how they can be kind to others. Carson- if a guy was falling from the sky because his parachute didn't work I would push a trampoline underneath him to help him. Yes, he drew it too! Funny boy.
