Raising Rock Stars ::Week 4::
This week we ‘kicked it up a notch’ during our family time. We’ve started a morning prayer time together ~ just sitting at the breakfast table, putting our prayer requests down on paper and taking turns praying for the requests.
Some of the concerns the kids have had are so absolutely sweet, and they have brought up things that I many times overlook. I am really excited about this part though ~ knowing that it will give us a chance to see the many different ways that God answers our prayers and listens to us.
The Girls
This week we mainly reviewed the past verses the girls have learned and made sure that our little verse photo books were up to date with all of our verse cards. Their main assignment for the week was to tell me about one of the Bible people they have been learning about and also a few verses from the last few months.Both girls are also a part of the Christmas program at church, so we’ve been reviewing lines and songs as well. We’re also gearing up for Advent! Next week we’ll be adding in some advent readings each evening ~ which we are all really excited about!
The Boys
Zachary’s lessons this week focused on Noah, so we added in a few little extras this week with our studies {full resources below}. We did several things as part of Zachary and Kaleb’s regular school time since they weren’t just ‘Bible’ related. Kaleb made his own Noah book too, which I'll show you all a little later in a Tot School post. :)Our Christian bookstore had some attendance sticker sheets/charts that were all about Noah, so I picked up a few of those for the boys to match up the animals and make their own ark scene.
Quite a few of the activities we did fit into a mini-lapbook {these were made from a file folder that was cut in half horizontally}. Zachary had some math and reading activities in his lapbook too.
Zachary’s verse this week was John 17:17.
Resources we used:
- Christian Preschool Printables ~ Noah's Ark mini book and other resources
- 1+1+1=1 ~ Noah's Ark Tot Book
- Coloring page of Noah's ark

We never regret the time we spend with the Lord in the morning. The children have Bible reading as part of their morning chores which are generally done before breakfast. Then our time with the Lord as a family is so critically important to us. Plus we have a chance to review the calendar and the changes that seem to be made to it daily in our household. Sounds like you all are doing wonderfully....this is one of the main reasons we homeschool. I don't want to give that kind of time up.
