Scripture Memory Verse Cards

I mentioned in this post that we will be using the Scripture Memory System from Simply Charlotte Mason.

I am not, however, using their suggested list for first grade.  I’m sure their list is great, but I already had a few ideas about what I want Miss M to learn this year, so I came up with my own list.  I formatted them the size of 3x5 index cards and printed them on cardstock.   And now that I’ve done the work, you don’t have to! At least not if you use the same verses we are.

Scripture Memory Verse Cards – pdf
  • 52 verses
  • New American Standard, unless otherwise indicated
  • grouped in a somewhat logical manner
  • numbered to indicate the order they are to be memorized in (in case the baby dumps the whole box, right?)
If you find any mistakes or have any suggestions – like the “page” numbers; I didn’t think of that till after I had printed and cut mine apart! – let me know!

The rest of our Bible curriculum this year will be reading through the Student Discovery Bible together. It’s not a full text Bible, but has Bible text in it and will be perfect for our needs this year.

    GREAT, GREAT GREAT! Thanks so much for doing this work. :) When did you find the time??! I don't know that I'll print this off and use it this year, but I have it bookmarked.

    I found that for some verses and definitely for passages we need more time than one week allows. Now, we only recite our verses once a day (usually three times at one sitting when I introduce a verse) so maybe that's why it takes us upwards of a month to learn a passage.

    I have been rather free-willy about choosing verses/passages, and just putting them in my three-ring binder behind whatever number is empty. (Most of them, since we just started this method a few months ago). I still need to make tabs for the odd/even days and for days of the week.

    Anyway, congratulations on finishing this project! And thanks again for doing the work.

    I did most of the work while laying beside Little Guy at naptime thanks to Hubby's Macbook. It was kind of an accident that I ended up with 52 verses. I don't really expect we'll get to all of them in a year's time, but I'd rather have too much than too little! And Miss M is prone to surprising me!

Getting Ready for Creation to the Greeks and 1st Grade

The past several days post-Christmas have been spent prepping for our upcoming school year. We school year-round from January to December. This year our schedule is blocked off in 5-week chunks.  We will have five weeks of school followed by a week or two (or sometimes three) break. There are many, many reasons we keep this sort of schedule, but I'll save all that for another day. Since I am doing both Creation to the Greeks and First Grade from My Father's World this year, I had a little more work than usual to get ready. I Printed or Copied grid pages from both the CTG and First Teacher's Manuals to make my planner pages listed in the Teacher's Manual from Drawing with Children Science in the Beginning Notebook ( get it under Downloads from Berean Builders ) Proverbs cursive copywork for my girl to tagalong with her little brother English from the Roots Up worksheets ( download here ) 100 chart from back of Singapore Math 4A Home Instructor's Guide ...

Cocoa Krispie Sod House: a model you can eat

Ahh!

Letter posters with memory verses

I have very fond memories of the cursive letter banner that was posted around the top of the walls in my fifth grade classroom.  I thought it would be fun to make something similar for our homeschool classroom (a.k.a. our kitchen). I decided to include a Bible verse for each letter.  At this point it's mostly for my own benefit since Miss M doesn't read yet.  They serve as great reminders to help her memorize these important bits of Scripture while her little mind is still a sponge.  (It saddens me that my memorization skills are not what they were when I was a kid!)   The fun part is I saved my work in a pdf file for you to use too! Just click the image above to download the file.  I laminated mine before sticking them around my kitchen walls with ticky tacky.  (The laminator is a new toy!)  Enjoy!
