Greetings!

Fall is in full swing in northern Virginia. We are at the peak for the foliage color. Everywhere we look we can see evidence of God’s creativity and love of beauty. His remarkable character is reflected in what He has made. His excellence, His care, His power, and His wisdom are evidently seen in His handiwork.

This is our family's favorite time of year—fall, football and festivals. In the last two weeks we went to an apple festival and a pumpkin patch. Hay rides, horse rides, corn mazes, BBQ, swings, and best of all—just watching our children laugh and play outdoors. Our ancestors would get a kick if they knew we were paying for our children to jump on a hay stack. These simple pleasures make great family memories. I have double the fun documenting the excursions with beautiful fall scrapbook papers.

Heart of Wisdom is opening TWO new stores! Read about them below. Save $2 to $20.00 by reading about the special offers throughout this email.

The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein...He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion. Ps. 111:2&4

If you aren't familiar with digital scrapbooking we've provided a link to a great Ebook to download at no charge! Be forewarned (especially if you gravitate towards crafts and quilting), scrapbooking is extremely addicting! Fortunately, digital scrapbooking is much less expensive than and not as messy as traditional scrapbooking.

Students that document schoolwork using these new methods build creativity, develop computer skills (may even become graphic artists) and most importantly, develop a love of learning. Check it out!


Time for Fun Fall Themes!
 
Apples, Leaves, Pumpkins, Thanksgiving

Autumn is a super time to teach your children about God's creation gifts: harvest, leaf identification, apples, pumpkins, and the pilgrims. Why do leaves change colors? What's the real story of Thanksgiving? How many types of apples are there?

Visit out new link library for free lesson plans, field trip ideas, corresponding worksheets, and book suggestions. Visit your public library which should have a special display of fall subjects (and maybe a fall book sale).


Halloween

Halloween is not just a time for cornstalks, pumpkins, apples and cute costumes. There is much, much more involved. Before deciding to celebrate or not celebrate any holiday, it is important to understand the history of that holiday.

NEW Online Hebrew Heritage Classes
 
Studying the Hebrew Roots of the Christian Faith

The passion to renew Christianity's biblical roots is fundamental to the vision of Hebraic Heritage Christian Center. See how the Center brings to life the Hebraic learning model using the latest technology available. The Hebraic Heritage Christian Center announces the beginning of registration for its first course offerings October 15, 2006, with online classes beginning January 1, 2007.

I am very excited to see the beginnings of this higher education that will equip students with in-depth understanding of Christianity's Hebrew foundations and will empower them with the knowledge and skills to disciple others, thereby exponentially expanding the impact of these restoration truths in the church and in society at large.

What is Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving is a mindset—not a day—of gratitude toward God. Thanksgiving is biblical, not secular in nature. Thanksgiving is really a time of reflection. It is a mindset that looks back on the way God has acted in our lives for our benefit.

Year at a glance - printable calendar link

I found a nice homeschool year planner at a glance calendar on: http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/DandelionSeeds

I have printed this and will mark down my rotation of the units we plan on studying this year. For example we will be rotating several weeks in science and then several in history. I will use the option 4 schedule in the Heart Of Wisdom book These will not be written in ink but pencil so we can adjust if we find a unit is taking a little longer or shorter than expected. But unless I set a goal I feel like we are spinning our wheels.
