We are using Abeka for all other school but I want something more interactive and meaningful!! And something we can reinforce in the evenings as a family! Thanks so much in advance!!

Hunter Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 You might want to look at the Grapevine Sticking Figuring Through the Bible curricula. My preliterate students have liked the original OT ebook, and I've just splurged on a revised hardcopy set that should be arriving soon. I just use the TM to prepare handwritten and hand-drawn copywork pages for them. We make our timelines vertical on lined paper, instead of horizontal; it's much easier.

wehave8 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Bible Study Guide For All Ages has always been our favorite! I just ordered our next set of Student Pages last night. I asked the boys again if they still like it and they all beg to continue! They are interactive... we never skip a thing. We always DO the Get Active parts. I take pictures of what we do and add them to our notebook of Student Pages. They make great memories! Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterhomeschool Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I am looking at using "The Dig" available at Amazon with my boys (ages 7 and 9) because I think the science/archeology aspect will draw them into the study of the Bible. As a Sunday School teacher of many years, I used a Montessori based curriculum called Godly Play with my Pre-k though Jr. High mixed age class (very small church w/ a one room Sunday School.)

alisoncooks Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 My girls (4 and 6) are working through CLE's Bible 1. We're stretching it out (2 lessons/wk) so that it doesn't advance too fast for youngest DD. We read important stories from the Bible and each has a color page/puzzle/etc to go with it. Easy-peasy, open-and-go. It doesn't look too exciting, LOL, but they seem to really like it. :D If you want something more family interactive, what about Long Story Short and Old Story New. We haven't used them yet, but the two books span a 3 year program. It has Bible passages, devotional topics, etc. Like I said, haven't used it yet -- it looks pretty sitting on my shelf, though. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelli Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I am a HUGE fan of Bible Study Guide for All Ages! We tried something different for one year and my kids were begging to go back, so we will be using it indefinitely. Their Bible knowledge and retention is great! I wrote this review about the program, so you can check it out if you are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edeemarie Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 We are using www.characterjournal.com. It ties together character traits with Bible verses, Bible stories, hymns, and real life application. We take our time with each trait and it usually takes us about a month to go through a trait. Oh, and did I mention it is free?! I have a few notebooking pages on my blog we use to go with each trait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stm4him Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I am planning to use VP's Bible curriculum all in one year using the Sunday School booklets in the back of the teacher's manual. We will sing the song and go over the memory verses and do as much of the Bible reading and booklet as we can. The rest they can do on our lighter school day and I will save any extra projects for summer or when we have time! The tests we'll do orally at the beginning of the lesson as a review. In 6th grade I may have them actually write out the answers. We'll do the whole timeline every year but we won't be reading the other resources except for the actual Bible chapters. They'll have already gone through the Illustrated Children's Bible and A Child's Story Bible in K and 1st grade so we won't need to look up the stories. They can color the timeline pictures with markers and I know they will like that a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherylw Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 This is free for 4th grade and under. It's designed for Sunday School, home Bible studies, homeschooling, etc. http://apologeticspress.org/APContent.aspx?category=9&article=4595 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
