I’ve seen a little tradition going on about being thankful for one thing each day. Today is the 21st, so in this tradition, I would have to give my 21st thanks for the month of November. That is very good, although I believe in giving thanks to our Lord every day for all the innumerable blessings he provides me with. This is what the Bible has to say:
“speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks ALWAYS for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,”( Ephesians 5:19,20 NKJV)
Nevertheless, this is a great season to learn the history of Thanksgiving with the kids. I will like to publicly give thanks though, to all my fellow homeschooling bloggers that with their experience and creativity have made my homeschooling days easier to work with. Currently we are working on a Thanksgiving Unit Study that we began this past Monday, and will be concluding on Thanksgiving Day with our celebration and own family traditions. I have been able to put it together with many freebies that I’ve received from all these talented homeschoolers. I thank God for their generous hearts in sharing their creative ways of teaching and for their resources. I will be adding the respective links to the work and activities we are doing with the kids at its moment.
We are a week away from Thanksgiving Day, but lets always remember all the amazing things that God does for us every day, all day.
“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, NKJV)
I am so greatful you wrote this reeivw.We have not used this yet but I had been looking at it.My oldest son will be in the 8th grade and we will be getting it soon and using it. My son enjoys reading and that is how he has learned most of his history.I have found he has learned a lot more than I ever did.He know more than me on the subject even though I enjoyed history in school. I never heard half the stuff he has learned, by just reading really good truthful books.Thanks again for your reeivw.Melanie B.
