Mystery of History

Mystery of History Volume 1: Week 1: Creation, Adam and Eve, Jubal and Tubal-Cain

See my main page for this course and the explanations of resources used.

We started by looking at our giant Adams Chronological Chart of History and talking about how the Bible is not separate from history. It IS History. I read lessons 1-3 with Genesis 1-5 aloud to everyone. The older kids took notes on their timeline pages, while the younger kids did the “information pages.” That was followed by the mapping and timeline activities outlined in the Mystery of History Companion Guide.

Copywork for these lessons:

Lesson 1: Creation

This is the history of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.  Genesis 2:4

Lesson 2: Adam and Eve

So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1:27

Lesson 3: Jubal and Tubal Cain

Jubal and Tubal-Cain, who lived just 7 generations after Adam, are important because they help show us the intelligence of early man. (Linda Hobar)

You could also copy the poem by Rudyard Kipling, found here.

We completed all of the lessons in one week. As I mentioned on the main page for this Mystery of History study, my children are also doing in-depth apologetics and science courses on creation, so we did not add extra activities to the history lesson.

Follow the entire course with us at the main Mystery of History Volume 1 page here.

The ultimate goal of Christian home education is not to get kids into the best colleges or to get the best careers. It is to raise our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. It is discipleship. I first learned that Anyone Can Homeschool from my mom. Oh, I didn’t realize at the time that I was learning that, but as a mom, I see that it was her example that encouraged me. Homeschool 101 I was a homeschool student in Texas in 1985. It wasn’t legal until 1994. Do the math. 😃 https://www.instagram.com/reel/CqHZnKssxcm/ What qualifies someone to teach a child? Good morning to every homeschool parent with a disobedient child! Guess what?! You are not alone! This is a sampling of our homeschool topics this week. This is why we don’t need government intervention. Not one of these resources would be “approved” curriculum. Hot take.
