Ambleside Online Year 1 so far: Bible Study

To KJV or not to KJV? After reading this post by Kathy at Piney Woods Homeschool, I have decided to use a more modern version with the children at the moment, with perhaps some memory work from the King James Bible, and then read that with them as "literature" at a later date.

The Ambleside ladies have just posted a Bible readings schedule as part of their curriculum, which is really helpful. However, I'm not going to follow it as laid out, but rather adapt it so our weekly readings look like this:

Monday: Old Testament
Tuesday: New Testament
Wednesday: Psalms
Thursday: Proverbs
Friday: catch up with any missed, or children's choice of story.

At the moment we are using the International Children's Bible.

We also have a family Bible time which DH leads in the evening. At the moment he's reading through Leading Little Ones to God; we've also used The Catherine Vos Story Bible and the Big Picture Story Bible.

I really like Lindafay's ideas on Practical Ways to Cultivate Spirituality in a Child at Higher Up and Further In, and will try to incorporate them at some point.
