Hello, hope your week is going well. I am so happy to finally be getting out all of the resources that we will be doing this year.

One thing I wanted to accomplish with my children is to read through the entire old testament.  My children are old enough that this year we will be able to accomplish this. I have divided this up into 170 days worth of study.  We are going to be diving in and doing a lot of read aloud bible study together. I figured I would read from an easier to read version for this course…hmmm any recommendations? Then my older children will answer the questions after we read it aloud. Most every question has the verse number next to it to help them find it easier.

We will also read a Psalm or Proverb each day as well.

All of this will reinforce bible truths for our family. I am excited about this one.  It will be a lot of reading, but  it is something that the Lord has laid on my heart to do this year.  I had to think that we will spend the time reading through worldly read aloud books that aren’t going to benefit their futures very  much, but reading the word of God and being taught wisdom, is going to be much more long lasting teaching for our family. I would much rather choose to fill their minds with God’s word then a worldly fiction book.

This year Old Testament and then the next year we will do the New.

Hope this inspires someone to read through it with their own families.  Be blessed as you go about your day.

Hello, hope your all having a fabulous day today. I wanted to let you know of some things that I have updated for my FREE schooling resources.

All of my spelling courses now include a printed version instead of just cursive for grades 3rd-6th. Some of my children did better when I wrote the words out in print, so I just decided to lessen some of my work and make them all print. You can still get the cursive version, the print is now just an option. I fixed a few typos that I noticed through the year as well.

I also fixed my new 5th and 6th grade math that I redid–I forgot to put page numbers on them ?!!?–gasp so that is now finished.

I am also using a math facts speed course.  We do enjoy XtraMath.org for speed drill practice but,  I have noticed that some of my children just prefer the pen and paper type tests. So I did a year long review of all the math fact families and I will give them one page per day to do along with their math.

That you can get here math speed test practice for year

or, if you prefer to divide them up differently then I have done, you can print them out according to your child’s needs. get that here=== speed tests individual to print as you would like.

Keep watching for more things………..Be blessed!
