Have you been following the events as they unfold?
Bill Nye made a big ta-doo by saying we are harming our children by teaching them creationism and AIG responded.
Go back the this post to see the videos.
Fast forward to now when Bill Nye and Ken Ham of AIG are going to debate each other on Tuesday, February 4.
Evolutionists have having a heart attack stating that Bill Nye should waste his time debating. Richard Dawkins, of course, had to spout off about the dangers of debating Creationists. It gives Creationists an "apparent legitimacy."
-Whatever-
Anyway, you can go HERE to sign up to watch the debate online for free.
You can also pre-order Uncensored Science: Bill Nye Debates Ken Ham Pre-order your DVD copy today! The basic DVD is only $19.99 or you can actually download the video for $12.99 (HD) or $9.99 (SD). I think it would serve as a great resource to watch again and again.
One of the reasons I've been too busy to check in daily is because I'm the director/leader of our Cubbies group.
Over the next few meetings, we'll be covering the days of creation. AWANA provides a lot of great things to use, but I get bored with just worksheets in class. On the other hand, I've been trying to provide parents with some additional worksheets which support our memory verses and preschool learning in general.
I thought I'd share some things I have found to incorporate.
First, I think this is so cool. It's the days of creation by a Jewish homeschooler. I LOVE how to tell a Kosher fish!
I am going to be using a simpler version of this for our next meeting. I had the Cubbies hands traced a few times, will cut them out beforehand, and make a smaller version of the sun for day 4 of creation. We'll stick the memory verse in the middle instead of a face.
I had also like this idea but thought it too much for one Cubbies meeting.
This is a cute creation book. Love it being hands-on.
This creation pack is cute but practical. It covers the days of creation and includes number and letter writing practice.
Lastly, here's a site with all kinds of worksheets, activities and even a Genesis lapbook!
Do you have any great resources for teaching creation?
Not really a surprise, but Bill Nye posted last week his thoughts about the dangers of teaching our children creationism. Here's his video, so you can see for yourself.
I hope his confession doesn't scare you all! Personally, I think we're continue to watch his stuff, especially the earlier stuff, but will continue to watch it with discernment. I've already been training mija to look for keywords of error like "millions of year" when we watch or read something.
The Creation Museum posted a video explaining how Bill Nye is wrong. Nothing like using a PhD in Biology from Brown University and PhD in Molecular Genetics to make you point!
