Homeschool for High School - 50 Writing Activities on Psalm 119 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781545296851)

Use Psalm 119 to foster critical thinking and creative writing with your homeschooled child. Help them think about events that bring feelings of happiness and how to bring joy to others, describe when adults help kids who are tired or hungry or hurt, list good and bad things to desire, imagine ways to be thoughtful and kind, and describe how to be a good student. Teach children to consider what they think about, what they say, and what they do. Teach them to notice how their words and actions affect other people. Have a discussion about disagreements, and what we shouldn't do and should do when in an argument. Help youngsters look into their own lives and identify what should be scrubbed and washed away. Guide them in thinking about good and bad ways of handling disagreements. Help them figure out how to determine right from wrong. Consider times when it is okay to lie or important to tell the truth. Create a conversation with God about honesty. List what can happen if a kid lies at school. Write a paragraph about things that are scary. Imagine the things we don't know anything about. Explore things we hope will happen and how to make them happen. List people we completely trust. Explain how lying is like pushing a rock up a hill. Recognize the ways that adults guide children into making good choices. Identify where life is within our own control. Think about when it is difficult to be kind. Discover the relevance of ancient words for modern times. Reflect on moments when words of advice helped us as we were angry or sad. Look back on times when our actions made our parents proud. If you haven't tried using the Psalms to teach thinking and writing, then you don't know what you are missing. This workbook has 50 opportunities to reflect and wonder and write.
