Matthew and I read passages that covered the defeat at Ai. Matthew was asked a series of thought-provoking questions that connected moments of jealousy to the story.
Matthew and I finished our brief Jonah unit with a Veggietales episode that mirrored the story. It helped Matthew link important themes of the story in an easier manner than the direct text.
Matthew and I took a turn from the story of the Israelites to focus on the story of Jonah and the whale. For the first time, we read this story directly from scripture instead of the prepared story guide from Matthew's workbook.
