Friday, March 28, 2008 - Wordless Lapbook
This week we did something different for Bible because we are finished with our scheduled reading. I saw this Wordless Lapbook over at Just Call Me Jammin! and we did one of our own! Cameron worked on cutting things out while we read our missionary story for the week and then we worked on a color a day.

I think he did a great job of tracing and cutting out the letters!

I took construction paper and cut out squares to make each color a booklet. I put the pages for each booklet in and stapled it together.
He wrote what each color stood for on the first page:

Page 2 had a corresponding Bible verse and then I drew a visual reminder. He was excited about finding out what each days picture was. LOL I'm glad he's impressed with my drawing.

Each day he copied part of a poem/song about the colors. I would have had him copy it on his own but to make sure it all fit on the one paper, I typed it up on Word and put the font color as lightest gray so that he could trace. I figured it was good practice and reminder of how to shape each of his letters.

Then across the bottom we put the ABC's of Salvation

We took a lot of our ideas from Jammin' but one of the great things about lapbooking, you can change things around and make it your very own.
But like Jammin' I will list what all we used.
Black
- Page 1: BLACK sin
- Page 2: Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

- Page 2: Admit you are a sinner
- Page 3: Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.
"B" booklet
- Page 1: B: BELIEVE
- Page 2: Believe in Jesus. Put your trust in Him as your oly hope of salvation
- Page 3: John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
"C" booklet
- Page 1: C: Confess
- Page 2: Confess with your mouth that Jesus is your Lord.
- Page 3: Romans 10:9, 10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Poem: (It's also a song!)
My heart was black with sin,
Until the Savior came in.
His precious blood, I know
Will wash me whiter than snow.
And in God's Word I'm told,
I'll walk the streets of gold.
I'll read my Bible and pray,
And grow in him every day!

VERY, VERY cool idea!!! I just may have to steal this for us to use. I think Lauren would love doing this. Ashley would probably not like it, but it would be good for her to do read with us or do one with me in a modified way.
Okay, using the word "steal" when talking about doing a project about God's plan of salvation just doesn't seem to gel, does it? LOL You know what I mean though. ;o)
Thanks for sharing!!

Hi Danielle,
You have a sweet little boy. I have only one little boy too so I was encouraged when I came to your blog.
I'm so glad you've joined in the April Challenge!!! I'm so excited about what God has in store for each of us. What book of the Bible will you be reading in?
Hugs,
Leah
