  1. These are great goals Bev. I really like adventures in Odyssey (all but great for covering the Bible stories) and Your Story Hour.(the Bile volumes.) The Story Hour are expensive. I only have Vol. 1 and 2. We have started on the division of the two kingdoms (Judah and Israel/Jereboam and Reheboam)
    We use the R & S Bible readers and they are really good. We use the workbook orally and it has work wonderful for covering comprehension and jumping into spiritual discussion that pertains to Christian living.

  2. We have a lot of Adventures in Odyssey but for some reason, she hasn't taken much interest in audiobooks yet. I do play audiobooks sometimes and make her listen lol. =0 I will look up "Your Story Hour" as I haven't heard of those.

    I almost got the R&S Bible readers but stuck with what we already had purchased from Memoria Press but still not entirely sure how I'm going to approach Bible this year.

    Thanks! :)
