Let Your Light Shine!

I started a letter of the week program with Carson and Shane.  I thought it would be something fun and educational.  They have really enjoyed it and I have been blown away by what they can do!  The program I am using is called Raising Rock Stars Preschool and it is from a blog I read.  I love this program because it is based on scripture.  I get to teach letters but our main focus is learning God's word.  Each week focuses on a different letter, number, color and sight word.  This week we did the letter L, number 1, color yellow, and the word see.    Each letter also has a memory verse which is the main biblical topic for the week.  This week we talked about letting your light shine!  I thought it would be fun to do a little video of Carson saying his verse.  By Wednesday, he had is down!


After I took the video of Carson, Shane wanted me to do him too.  I thought it would be fun to see what he would say.  I was completely shock at what I heard!  Let me warn you that his video is the most adorable thing you have ever heard!!!


I could not believe he knew the entire verse!!!  What an amazing little guy.   Two days shy of his second birthday and he memorized his first Bible verse and a lengthy one at that!!! 



I didn't take many other pictures of our letter L activities, but here are a few.


Carson writing....he did much better than I expected!  He looks so focused in the picture, but is wasn't quite as peaceful as it looks!
 

Each letter has a power point that goes along with it.  This was by far their favorite thing!  We have done it every day and multiple times the last two days.  They know it word by word.

Here they are holing their lights getting ready to sing This Little Light of Mine!


But this is what they do when the music comes on!  I am singing very expressively and they are reclining on the fire place.  They enjoy the song, but don't want to sing.  It is way more fun to watch me do it myself!


We had such a fun time with the letter L.  I can't wait until next week!

Such handsome, smart boys! They both did an amazing job on their verse. Good idea to tape those sweet little voices speaking truth. Love it all!
