A Gibbon Hangs Out

Recently we came across some excellent creation/science/Bible DVD series that would make a great resource for use in your homeschooling unit studies. This wonderful series is called Creation Proclaims and the first Volume is Climbers and Creepers. Hosts Dr. Jobe Martin and Dan “The Animal Man” Breeding take you on a wild animal adventure. We highly recommend these fascinating, professionally produced DVDs.

To help you use this in your Unit Studies, here’s a Unit Study planner download. We’ve also put together a Bible/Science resource that you can use in conjunction with the Creation Proclaims DVDs.

God created the Earth to sustain Life

So what is the Big Deal and all the fuss about the Creation vs. Evolution Debate?

Why even be concerned about it? Why not just tell people about Jesus and let the Evolutionists have their ideas? Why is sorting through this controversy so important? We supply some of the answers in this Free PDF Homeschool Bible and Science lesson that we put together for you after viewing the wonderful Creation Proclaims, Volume 2: Flight and Spike from the Creation Proclaims DVD series available right now at Piedmont Education Services for only $11.95 (that’s the lowest price you’ll find anywhere on the internet!). In the final section of the DVD, host Dr. Jobe Martin and special guests from Answers in Genesis explore amazing facts about the Earth that clearly demonstrate it was created to sustain Life. You’ll want to watch this fascinating episode! But even if you don’t have the DVD to watch, you can still download your free Homeschool Teacher’s Guide – Creation Proclaims: Earth pdf file here!

Homeschoolers look at insect

Insects are amazing little creatures. God has created a vast array of them for us so we can marvel at his power and wisdom. Why not tap into the natural curiosity children have about insects and start an insect collection using this wonderful insects unit study page put together by Cindy Downes?

But here’s one insect we bet you’ve never seen. The weta is a cricket-like insect twice the size of a mouse (!) that lives in New Zealand. Watch this amazing video about the weta, how it can literally be frozen in the winter and unthaw in spring and still be alive! This video, and many more like it, can be found on the excellent creation/science/Bible DVD series Creation Proclaims. Our kids love it (especially the dinosaurs) and your kids will too.

This week on the The Homeschool Show we wrap up our time with Joy Dean, a homeschooling mom who, along with her husband Steve, homeschooled their 5 children for 15 years and also created State History from a Christian Perspective. Last week we looked at the philosophy behind studying History, Geography, State History from a Christian perspective, and this week Joy Dean talks in more detail about books for the State History program, explaining exactly how to use them.
