The Book Makes a Difference

Wow, this is one neglected little blog. And I still don't have time for a real update, though, if I am good, I'll be finished with CST except for the "portfolio assembly" by Monday evening!!

Anyway, quick story. When teaching young children Bible stories and when having them read said Bible stories on their own, be absolutely certain that they are turned to the proper book of the Bible before reading.

I had students read Genesis 22:16-19 as part of our study of Abraham and Isaac. One student read Exodus 22:16-19 instead.

Go ahead, look it up. See for yourself why I braced myself for a parent phone call.

That Bible. It's pretty racy.

That's hilarious. I'm sure the student was too mortified to mention it to his/her parent.
