Lord, I need you a song that goes perfect with wb 36 and life.

Lord, I need you by by Matt Maher is a song that goes perfect with what we are learning in wb 36. We sing the Wisdom Booklet song every day when doing the Wb so I am going to print out the words and add this song to our wb time. 


"Lord, I Need You"

Lord, I come, I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
Without You I fall apart
You're the One that guides my heart

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

Where sin runs deep Your grace is more
Where grace is found is where You are
And where You are, Lord, I am free
Holiness is Christ in me

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

Teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I'll fall on You
Jesus, You're my hope and stay

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

You're my one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

WB 36 Power Through Precision~ Gold Rush & 5 Giants of temptation

Gold Rush interactive notebook click here

We have spent the last week and a half on our Power Through Precision studying the 5 giants of temptation & the California Gold Rush. We spent each day reading about the giants we face in our lives doing one giant daily and studying the Gold Rush.

   I decided to do the project that list vocabulary words to know and spell. We did this all at once at the end of the resource. I made a vocabulary mini-book to glue into their interactive notebook. I wrote the words on the flap and they copied the definition from the board as I looked it up in the dictionary. I used my IPad's dictionary which saved time.Going over the vocabulary words were very helpful. I asked them what the word meant then we wrote the definition. This allowed me to see if they understood the vocab words. My older student took notes as we went through the study so this was just with the elementary students. Next time I would like to have everyone do it together. 
   We then made a mini-book that listed the 5 giants of temptation and under the flap we wrote a verse that went with the giant. 
This study was what we needed here .God is good. As we face these temptation in life whether it be from Satan or our own sinful desires we have a choice to make. They also really I think for the first time understood what lust was in scripture. 


The other project we did was study the California Gold Rush because of the greed during that time in American history. I read through this book as they colored & cut. I purchased the interactive notebook which has the link above. You may be able to find some for free or make your own even better. We then glued them in our WB interactive notebook. I made some of my own mini-books and added it to the study. I am going to look for a movie or documentary on the gold rush. An idea for a read aloud would be Brighty of the Grand Canyon. click here.



One of the fun things we did was discuss if we had to leave and pack up a wagon to go across the country. It really made them think about was is a true needs in life verses things that are pleasures and things that can cause us to be greedy.
I am looking forward to studying bulletproof George Washington next week.
