JBC once more
For JBC, we're now on Year 2, Theme 1 Week 4. Time does not permit me to write out my lesson plans. But as I go through my lessons, I try to keep in mind the following goals (as set out by Mr. Burtness in his introduction to the JBC).
I want to help my daughter:
1) To learn to identify the sovereignty of God in the lives of men and nations.
2) To understand the relationship between individual character and societal liberty.
3) To understand the Biblical basis for Christian self-government.
4) To learn to research the Bible and use related reference materials.
5)To learn to identify Biblical principles and relate them to all of life.
Mr. Burtness has other goals but the above is plenty for this year.
I'm glad to say JBC is one of my daughter's favorite subjects. Little Josh enjoys listening and contributing to the discussions too.
I think it is also time to listen to the tapes again. They never fail to encourage me.
Oh, we've started using the Key Sheets. Now that my daughter is older, they are really useful.

My friend Jen (who just started blogging here:
http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/littletreasures/) called me today and said she just got her JBC curriculum this afternoon! I told her she should share it on her blog too!
I am hoping to get it for next year!
I am using MWOG too! We are to the Pioneers right now - almost done and then we will be ready to start the COC all over again! ( :
