Read God, I Need to Talk to Your About Paying Attention by Dan Carr
• Bible:
- Paint the Little King Josiah worksheet with watercolor.
- 
Make a Bible Scroll by cutting a brown paper bag into a long rectangle. Scrunch the paper up. Smooth it out (using a rolling pin is fun). Continue to scrunch and smooth the paper several times until wrinkles cover much of the paper. For the final time, smooth the paper out and paint with brown watercolor. Let dry. Curl the ends of the paper around a pencil and tightly roll to create the scroll effect. If the rectangle is cut extremely long, you may also wrap and glue the paper around paper towel rolls. Write Proverbs 19:20 on the scroll to match the Bible story.
- Discuss how King Josiah was attentive to what God wanted Him to do and the importance of reading and learning the Bible.
- 
Roll fruit roll-ups like scrolls and eat.

• Letters & Numbers:
Weeks 6 focuses on "angled-line letters" V and W. Start by creating the characters using short and long craft sticks and move to writing the characters on the Angled Line Characters #1 worksheet. Be sure to say the Letter Formation Chant as the child creates each character.
Many children struggle with the letter "V" and "W." Here are two ideas to help:
V - This letter looks like a valley. Go online and find pictures of valleys.
W - Demonstrate how a "W" will hold water by drawing water lines in the "valleys."
• Information:
If the child is ready, for the next two weeks place the letters of the child's last name on the 1” Tracing Paper. Using the 4 Year Curriculum Handwriting Worksheets as examples, draw a box for each letter in the child’s name and add the green and red dots if needed. If required, work slowly adding a letter each day.
• Book of the Week:
- Create a meal of spaghetti, meatballs, peas, bread, and butter. Bake oatmeal raisin cookies for dessert.
- Discuss sharing and how Oliver was attentive to his sister's needs at meal time.
- Play hide and seek. Also use with Little King Josiah looking for a Bible or the scroll craft. Whenever the Bible or scroll is found, sing The B-I-B-L-E song. (Idea adapted from Mission Arlington)
