BFS Assignment #109 We Bring Good Things To Life (GE)

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

(Philippians 4:8)





Intro:

The passion to sing, the passion to draw, the passion to build, the passion to ride, the passion for reading, the passion for nature… the list is endless. Some children exhibit their passion from day one, others need an experience to spark that passion



Assignment:

Share a field trip/lifestyle learning experience where you really felt you were bringing good things to life for your children, where something came alive for them, or ignited a passion.

We enjoy bringing things to life for our kids by taking them to some of the places that we study. We love to visit Chicamagua Battlefield whenever we are in Chattanooga. Its an awesome place to visit. Especially the weapons museum.Visiting the General Shale Museum in Gray,Tn when they had the Sue exhibit was awesome too. The kids loved the interactive stuff. Getting to sift for fossils was something they enjoyed too. A few weeks back we went hiking to Clingman's Dome and also spent some time hiking on the Appalachian Trail.It was a great time for some nature and history study. I firmly believe that if the kids can get their hands dirty doing it then they can wrap their minds around it. Things "stick" better for us when we can take part in it. Here are some pictures of us in our " hands on" classrooms.















I think that the memory verse for this assignment is perfect so I'm gonna stick with it. Blessings! ~ Nikki
