September Brings

Warm September brings the fruit;

Sportsmen then begin to shoot.*

September's flower, Forget-me-not

September is Children’s Eye Health and Safety Month.  It’s a great time to learn more about how our eyes work.  Here are some free activities from the American Optometric Association.

John Chapman, better known as Johnny Appleseed was born in September.  Enjoy a unit study of apples and create a lapbook of Johnny Appleseed and celebrate with an apple pie!

September 22 is the first day of Autumn.  As the leaves begin to change color, this is a great time to do a study and lapbook on trees and leaves. Your older students may enjoy completing the Pathfinder club Tree honor.

“Many illustrations from nature are used by the Bible writers, and as we observe the things of the natural world, we shall be enabled, under the guiding of the Holy Spirit, more fully to understand the lessons of God’s word. It is thus that nature becomes a key to the treasure house of the word.”

Whatever You Write On the Heart of a Child

Whatever you write on the heart of a child,
no water can wash it away.
The marks in the sands are erased by the tide;
inscriptions will crumble with clay.
The words in a book will decay with the years
and even engraving in stone disappears.
But God’s Word inscribed on a little child’s heart
for time and eternity shall not depart.

“Work is good for children; they are happier to be usefully employed a large share of the time; their innocent amusements are enjoyed with a keener zest after the successful completion of their tasks.”
