SDS and a JBC Poster


I'm enjoying my SDS study. I may write what I'm learning if I have the time. How I love soaking myself in its study and in God's Word. How we need to be renewed in our mind day by day even as we face the challenge of teaching our children. As our mind is renewed day by day, learning and teaching become a joyful experience. A liberating experience.


Meanwhile, we're making progress with our JBC. We're now working on ThemeV  Week 10. This past Friday, after we discussed Acts 4 and 5, I asked my daughter to document the leading idea and to create a poster based on the leading idea.


Here was what she did.



The poster is not clear as she used gel pens. I thought she did a good job.


For the heading she had:


TODAY'S POSTER:

God is more important than man.


On the pink rectangular box on the left, she quoted a Bible verse Acts 5:29.


Peter and the other apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than men”


Then on something that looks like a blue tombstone, she wrote yesterday's date within a flower and stated:


Remember:

God is the most important.


And on the bottom part of the poster she had a THINK! CORNER. She had this in the green box.


God is more important than man. We must obey God, not man. God is more important.


One thing I can say, she was able to pick the leading idea very quickly and the whole poster really zeroed in on that. The Principle Approach allows the learner to internalize lessons that worksheets and multiple choice questions can never do. It is very exciting.

Thank you for sharing this Miiko! Your daughter did a lovely job and even more important she has a solid grasp of the principle and you know it by what she wrote! ( : I just love the Principle Approach for this very reason- I love how the lessons are as simple as bringing out a Scriptural truth through the content of the lesson- no more - no less! I can't think of anything more important than this for my children to learn!

This is absolutely wonderful! Isn't it amazing how powerful the truth is when our children understand it. I am so glad I found your blog.

Posted by Michelle
Hi!
I just came across your blog. I bought the Noah Plan Curriculum two years ago. Read some of it, then we moved to Colorado (from CA) built a house and had no time to try and "re-learn" my teaching style. This summer I re-read the SDS (i think I've read it 4 times now and finally understanding it), and quite a few of the curriculum guides. I am so excited to start school this year. I feel like I've gone through a total mind-renewing summer. It has been so inspirational and ministering to me to be able to apply God's word to my schooling. I love it. I will be visiting your blog often. I just started my blog and haven't written about PA but will soon! Thank you so much!
