Today I had a ton of fun making a Books of the Bible Lapbook. Print out all your pieces. Assemble the accordion books. Attach the cover to the front of the lapbook. How it looks when you first open it up. Bible notes on the left hand flap. Bible vocabulary on the right hand flap. The beginning part of the Old Testament books on the first insert. Under the Bible notes tabs. Just a close up of the first set of pockets. The accordion books are folded up. The match book vocabulary can be either written in or pasted in. Turn the first insert page over and here are the remaining pockets etc... for the OT. Then we have a 400 years separation note stuck to the bottom part of the page. Turning to the middle we start the NT pockets. And continue over for the remainder. How it looks when both inserts are open. On the back of the right hand insert. A full listing of the books of the Bible. Yes, so that's it. It is quite a project, and I suggest doing it in small parts as a child learns the Books of the Bible by rote memory. So, if you're interested in this lapbook feel free to download a FREE copy here. Thanks so much for visiting.

Bible ABC's: C is for Caleb These lessons can be used without the alphabet theme. Consider these an update with new ideas and printables! These information Anchor Charts are included. These Event Cards can be used as smaller visuals and they can be shuffled for the student to re-tell the events and lay them in order. There are three extra pictures to color that I found at Pixabay. The full-page size visuals and pictures-to-color can be downloaded below. This Spin-the-Wheel is available in color and black & white (although the color graphics don't transfer well to black and white this small). These are a fun way to re-tell the events. I added these 'headbands' since they were traveling. Have the students wear these, purchase telescopes or binoculars to spy out the land! Have grapes, figs and pomegranates to find. I added pictures to print that can be hidden and searched for as a last minute or cheaper resource. A stick can be inserted in the vine loop to 'carry' the grapes. There are two grape cluster mazes (one hard and one is easy) and a dot-to-dot. There is a set of Stand-Ups with a fill page and half page background. There is a set of 5 and 10 piece puzzles. There are alphabet mazes and worksheets included. These are half-sheets and can be used in Interactive Notebooks. Click here to see a free video on how to make and use Interactive Notebooks. The grapes are dots and can be traced and colored, painted, use Dot Markers, etc. There is a Situational Reaction/Action Application page included with ideas for the students to apply this lesson to themselves.

Parables are a wonderful way to teach children biblical truths in a story format they will understand.

As I began prepping to teach my children some of the parable stories, I realized I wanted more resources. Today I am sharing with you those I have gathered for a handful of the parables in the Bible.
