WB27 Science Resource

Today we finished the Science Resource. Our study was on spectroscopy & spectral lines.

We had a wonderful surprise in the mail today from ATI. We were given two books & pamplets! One of the awesome things about ATI is the equiping of so much more than homeschooling families with a great curriculim that is centered on Christ. They also give tools and opportunities in so many ways to build strong families for Christ to reach out in thier own communites & the world. It is truly a family based education with a strong Christian worldview reaching out to others for Christ. As always encouraging the fathers to love their wives and being the spiritual leader of the home.

WB 27 Power Through Prec.& History Resource

Since I last posted we completed two resources, Power Through Precision & History Resource. We also did another Character Sketch for Cautiousness~Octopus & Uriah.

When I planned this WB earlier in the year for the history Resource I was going to do a study on War War 2 because of the The Hiding Place the recommended reading. I decided to save the study for WB 35. So for our history this month we will study the Spanish Inquisition which was one of the choices for further study. It will fit right in after the Renaissance study from the last WB. I wish I could find more information on the subject.

I enjoyed the study of the lies in the Bible doing the History Resource. It was a good lesson on how lying is a good indication we are not in the will of God.

I came across another ATI family blog :O) Here is the article & there is a link to their blog which has WB notebook pages that I can't wait to begin using!

Wisdom Booklet 27 ~* Theme Song WS

Wisdom Booklet 27 ~* Character Quality Ws

Today we completed our character quality worksheet for Cautiousness~* knowing how important right timing is in accomplishing right actions.

We then began to study Character Sketchs from Volume 3 ~* Cautiouness. We studied the prairie dog & looked at Barnabas. Our focus cautiousness is living within the protection of my God-given resources.The kids then did a character sketch coloring page. I could not find my crossward book for this volume so I will have to purchase another one for the older students.

Wisdom Booklet 27 ~* Meditation Worksheet

Today we completed the Meditation Worksheet. I reminded them the purpose of this worksheet is not only to do a complete verse study looking at the Greek & using tools but to meditate on the verse as we go through the WB. I pray the Holy Spirit is their teacher all month bringing up the verse all their lives.
I began to read "The Hiding Place"about Corrie Ten Boom as a read aloud today. It is recommended reading for the WB (History projects) so I choose this as the read aloud for this WB. The children are familiar with the story since my hubby read to them as a read aloud Corrie Ten Boom Keeper of the Angel's Den by Janet & Geoff Benge in the past.

We then worked on our Pennsylvania postcard facts. We are apart of a state postcard swap with homeschoolers around the country. We are enjoying getting postcards from all the states.Some are homemade while others are bought.They all have interesting facts and I can't wait to sit down and read them all. In the meantime we are enjoying getting them in the mail. Our turn to send out postcards from PA is coming up so today I ordered the postcards and we sat down and worked together on writing some of the PA facts we thought are cool to print on the post cards. We do live in a great state that is rich in history & its very foundation was built on Christ!!!

Here is a picture of just some of the great postcards we have received so far :O)
