Empowering Kids and Teens with Bible Learning Tools

Children and teens must be taught the Bible. Children are precious in the eyes of Jesus. Remember what Jesus said to His disciples. Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

I have gathered free Bible teaching resources for you to teach your children with. Please don’t leave it up to the Sunday School teachers. Your children at the most are only with them a few hours 1 or 2 days a week. That is not enough time to train a child in the way that he / she should go. You are the parent. God gave you the job of training your children.

I have broken it down into 3 basic age groups. Children younger that 1st grade could possibly with some modifications benefit from the resources in the 1st to 4th grade listing. If any link does not work, please let me know by leaving a comment. I will fix it as soon as possible.

    • Color the graph up to the right number for each dinosaur.

      • Triceratops 25 feet
      • Utahraptor 20 feet
      • Stegosaurus 25 feet
      • Velociraptor 6 feet
    • “Dinosaurs ate plants before [Adam and Eve sinned].  How do we know this?  God created the world and said it was “very good!”  Everything existed in perfect harmony.  We also know that all animals were vegetarians because of what we find in His Word–  Genesis 1:30, ‘And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to every thing that creeps upon the earth, which has life, I have given every green herb for food: and it was so.’   Some scientists use the argument that dinosaurs had sharp teeth– therefore they ate meat.  However, today Giant Pandas and many other species of bears have sharp teeth (similar to large meat eating cats like lions), and they are vegetarian. After the fall, everything changed.  The world was no longer perfect as God had created it.  At this point it is possible that some varieties of dinosaurs became meat eaters.”

Essential Life Skills for Today’s Youth

Children are in need of learning basic life skills. In the effort to help them be better equipped to keep up with technology, many people have forgotten that children also need to learn basic skills. A computer can’t do everything for you. So many teens and young adults get to college, and they still need someone to wash their clothes, make appointments for them, and cook their food. This is ridiculous. I am sorry but a bright young adult should be capable of figuring out how to do basic things.

The lack of these skills demonstrates a lack of reading comprehension skills.

For teaching your teen how to cook, there are countless cookbooks written in very basic language for children. Please go to a library and check one out for your teens.

Here is a list of some of my favorite ones:

  • Betty Crocker’s cook book for boys and girls.
  • Kids cook! :100+ super-easy, delicious recipes /
  • American girl around the world cookbook
  • Get cooking / –Sam Stern’s get cooking
  • Kids cook 1-2-3: recipes for young chefs using only 3 ingredients
  • The Boxcar Children Cookbook
  • The Berenstain Bear’s Country Cookbook: Cub-Friendly cooking with an Adult
    These are just some that I like to use with my children, but there are many others

Think about washing clothes. Have you looked at the back of most laundry detergents? They have instructions.

Think about how to schedule an appointment. You need to know how to look at a calendar- which involves reading it- and you must talk to the person on a phone. Which part is hard? Additionally, there are many places that allow you to schedule online. These teens are supposed to know how to use a computer. So please teach your children how to read a calendar and mark on the calendar important dates.

Here is a website with links to sites that help teach other life skills. Many are useful things to know. https://freedomhomeschooling.com/life-skills/

Engaging Children: The Power of Hands-On Learning

There is an old Chinese Proverb that says,

Tell Me and I Forget; Teach Me and I May Remember; Involve Me and I Learn

When trying to teach children, this is helpful to remember. Children need to be involved in what they are learning. Think about what you remember the best. If you are like me, you remember learning from your mistakes more than from your successes. You probably are more likely to remember things when you learned in some hands-on way. Now apply these memories to teaching your children. Involving the child in something hands-on that is fun creates a fun memory for the child. Because they are able to remember doing the activity, they have also learned the information.

Efficient Homeschooling: Track Lesson Plans and Attendance Easily

 

We are all busy, and homeschooling parents are no exception. I have created a method to keep track lesson plans, grades, and attendance all in one document. Simply download this free document and save four copies for each subject, one for each of the four nine-week periods. Type your lesson plan under the heading “Assignment.” As your child completes each assignment, record the date as attendance. If the assignment is graded, enter the grade. At the end of the nine weeks, average the grades.

So here is the link to the free Homeschool Lesson plan and record keeping.

While you are there feel free to check out some of my other resources.
