I was reminded again why we’ll be heading into our sixth year enjoying Rod and Staff English. Yesterday, third grader and I read…
How sweet are thy words unto my taste! Yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Psalm 119:103
The assignment to emphasize that when we read God’s word we “should be careful to get all the good sweetness we can…
…We must not read so quickly that we miss the important truths God wants to teach us. Nor should we read so slowly that our minds wander and bits of truth slip away.”
Further on the assignment was to copy and memorize the above verse. I adore that we are using God’s word to study English.
I’m at The Curriculum Choice today and at Habits for a Happy Home sharing our favorite English and Grammar curriculum. Since this curriculum is written for a classroom, we adapt it for our homeschool. Would you please click over and join me?

I so love this…and finding curriculum focused on our Heavenly Father. I was going to use Rod/Staff last year and changed my mind….this year, it’s on the shelf. Will be checking out TOG this week (once things calm down from testing)……So blessed over the weekend! It was great meeting you and hope we can get together sometime for some fun!
