Bible Studies in our Homeschool

A peek into our school day!

Some days I am overwhelmed with gratitude to my Lord and Savior for the priviledge of homeschooling!  This is one of those days!  Homeschooling for me is a very tedious, important role that I take very seriously that comes with much responsibility but FUN!!!   But it's one of the most rewarding and inspiring things the Lord has allowed me to do in my lifetime.  I can't explain the joy I feel of being a part of  my daughter wanting to learn and be intrigued by learning and discovery .......at HER pace.  Of course, I am there to nudge her constantly as she can get a little sidetracked....like her mom! haha 

But she enjoys learning and we have a blast. 

I am especially enjoying the subjects these days.  In our bible history studies we are following the pace (and book of the bible) that my she is learning in Sunday School.  Of course during the week we really dig into the scripture and see what God wants us to learn from the passages.  That way we can study it all week chronologically and then she puts it into action each Sunday morning.  1Samuel chapters 1 thru 4 is our focus this week.    I found a great resource of free bible story printables for each bible story:  Bible Story Printables  As you can see in the picture, she is coloring a picture of Samuel as a baby and then she'll fill in the blanks, do a crossword puzzle and word search.  FUN!
