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!

Fall SWAP progress

I finally have some progress to report on my Ottobre SWAP.  There are actually six garments finished, but I only have pictures of four of them so far. You can see that the brown Maya blouse is lacking buttons. I didn't have anything suitable in my stash, so I'll "have" to go find some at JoAnn's.  I'm thinking something to match the medium pink in the trim, but we'll see. I almost never buy buttons...I usually always make do with what I have on hand. The cream Maya blouse is made of a vintage pillowcase I picked up at Goodwill a while back ($0.50).  It carries that oh-so-fresh smell that I love on my pillows and is super soft. I have a bit left that I'm going to hoard until just the right project comes up. I'm delighted with how dressy the little skirt came out! It's made of chocolate brown stretch velvet.  Miss M thought it was great fun to pet it like a kitten. Modeled by the lovely Miss M...and just before naptime (what was I thi...

Cocoa Krispie Sod House: a model you can eat

Ahh! I just realized I haven't blogged our Adventures in U.S. History since Week 26!!  What happened?!  We've just been plugging away contentedly at our work and are nearing the end of our school year.  So, while I go get myself sorted and whip up the rest of our weekly reviews for you, I thought you might like to see our latest project. A Cocoa Krispie Sod House Ingredients: 6 tablespoons butter 6 cups miniature marshmallows 9 cups cocoa krispies 3/4 cup fancy shredded coconut ("fancy" looks more like grass, but any shredded coconut will work) green food coloring extra butter or cooking spray Also needed: large sauce pan (or large microwave safe bowl) wooden spoon jelly roll pan or cookie sheet waxed paper small glass bowl fork knife clean scrap of cardboard popsicle sticks kitchen shears Directions: Melt butter in a large sauce pan over low heat.

12-gore denim skirt

The other evening I drafted a pattern for a 12-gore skirt following the instructions found here .  The next day I cut gores from worn out pairs of jeans!  Now I have a gorgeous denim gored skirt. I used 1 1/2-inch wide elastic in the waist and designed it to sit on my hips rather than my true waist.  I’m so short waisted that if I wore bottoms at my actual waist…well, it wouldn’t be pretty!  I plan to reuse some of the original belt loops so I can wear a belt with it…let’s just say that a toddler and an elastic-waist skirt are a recipe for disaster! You can see a few places where I removed pockets before cutting my gores – adds character, don’t you think?  And a skirt without a pocket is simply ill-conceived, so I reused a pocket from one of Hubby’s pairs of jeans.  Now I can carry my cell phone when I run errands!
