DawnUK Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I'm feeling like our memory work should include more from the bible. A friend's child that attends a classical christian school said that her children memorized Isaiah 40. Any other reccommendations?

cajun.classical Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 We're memorizing 1 Cor. 13 this year. It's been helpful for them to learn what it means exactly when they are told to love each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Marple Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 We've memorized Psalms 1. It flows nicely and has the feel of poetry, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denhu4 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 My 11 year old son memorized Psalm 40:1-10 last semester and has started on Psalm 111:1-10 for the second half of the year. My 5 year old daughter is working on Psalm 67. My younger one hears her older brother working on his memorization verses and she can now recite a portion of his.

Kimber Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 We're doing this one too right now. Last year we did Ps 121 and Ps 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
profmom Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 We're currently finishing up Psalm 23 and will go to Psalm 1 next. Psalm 100 and the Beatitudes are some others I didn't see mentioned. I love having a Bible passage going all the time! I think they are easier to review and retain than lots of individual verses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emily in FL Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Isaiah 55 John 1: 1-18 (not a whole chapter, but a large portion of scripture that I really want my dd to learn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMindy Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Phillipians 2 (or a large chunk of it, I can't remember) because it talks about putting others first and not thinking of ourselves first. Our whole family memorized it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
