Naturalmama2 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Do you have any recommendations for a Bible curriculum for us to read and discuss as a famy and then offers assignments or activities at different levels? My boys are in sixth and second grades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Jo Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Well I'm eyeing the Grapevine studies - they have overviews of the Old and New Testaments. The main feature is the 'stick figuring' to cement a Bible timeline. They offer workbooks for several levels. I plan to buy the higher level teacher's guide (hardcopy I hope), then probably two levels of workbooks as ebooks for the kids. It's either 50 weekly lessons or 175-ish daily lessons. (That's 50 for OT and 50 for NT btw.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naturalmama2 Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 That curriculum looks like it might be just what I'm looking for. Thanks for taking the time to tell me about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwjx2khsmj Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 We are using Explorer's Bible Study. My youngest (dd7) is doing the Old Testament Overview. My ds9, dd12 and I are working on a study of Job, Psalms and Proverbs. We've really enjoyed it so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeterbug Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Well I'm eyeing the Grapevine studies - Just FYI, Grapevine has a short Birth of Jesus study. I've also been looking at their products and I've purchased this to try it out. It will be a nice study for Christmas and give me a chance to try out their products before making a purchase for next year (we school on a calendar year).

Niranut Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 We just started using Foundations Bible Curriculum this year with my 5yo, 4yo, and 3yo, and we're liking it. It's a 3-year chronoloical Bible curriculum and includes activities and such for different ages. So you can go through the program several times and have it be a little different each time. Once you finish one 3-year cycle, you just go through it again. I can definitely see how my kiddos will get much more out of it our second time through the cycle, but at the same time, they are learning a lot this time around too!

Candid Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Read the Bible out loud together! The National Survey of Youth and Religion found that reading the Bible themselves was one of very few things that correlated with ongoing church attendance after a child passed 18 and left home. Devotions, special study classes, world view classes, etc. did not correlate. Don't just read the stories any more, read the whole thing or at least big chunks of other books.

I like how they add some inductive Bible study. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
