Jennybell  posted a question about what we use for Bible.  I have also been asked by a few others about our Bible.

This year I focused on Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Acts.  The history books of the New Testament.  I read straight from the Bible every day.  I have nothing against Bible story books but there is something about reading straight for the Word of God.  This is such a great way to stop and explain different words or what is going on.  Cameron has expanded his vocabulary from these readings too.   I made a coloring book for Cameron to work on while I was reading.

I put two passages per page.  I found these pictures at Calvary Chapel Children's Ministry.  They have 325 lessons from the Old and New Testament.  You can download each lesson for free or you can send away for a free CD. Each lesson has what to read from the Bible, a coloring page, and some extra pages:  word searches, quizzes, cross word puzzles and mazes.  Cameron LOVES mazes so I put the coloring picture with a maze for each lesson. I put all these in notebook folder to hold it all together.

I'm really excited about next year's Bible.  We will be using Calvary Chapel again but we will be using it together with a Bible cirriculum from Anne's School Place.  Again, we'll be reading straight from the Bible.  But it also will add some great extras that I'm really looking forward too.  (And it's a free download!)
