Yesterday we started our new KONOS unit on Joy/Cheerfulness. (Fitting given the disappointing outcome of the election.) We began by reading several scripture verses on joy and then dd got out the exhaustive concordance and looked up the word joy/joyful/joyous... and counted approximately 155 references. Hmmm, do you think being joyful is important to God? Today the children went out and found some nice sized rocks in our yard, cleaned them up and painted the fronts with a verse from Philippians 4. I thought it was going to take days to get this done but they finished in one afternoon.
They did such a nice job on their stones that I would like to display them outside. If the weather is nice tomorrow I will take them outside and spray their paintings with a sealant and then leave them on the porch for winter. Next spring they will be a nice addition to the front garden. I hope they will plant seeds in and encourage those who pass by. Tomorrow we will discuss colors and the emotions they promote before heading into some art history and examination next week. |
