 Lesson: Using Maps & Timelines for Bible study 

 Psalm 8:1 

O LORD, our Lord,
         How excellent is Your name in all the earth,
         Who have set Your glory above the heavens! 

(Oral verse test Friday, 9/17) 

(The class will be learning all of Psalm 8 during the next few weeks, so here is Psalm 8 in its entirety as a study help.) Psalm 8 1 O LORD, our Lord,
         How excellent is Your name in all the earth,
         Who have set Your glory above the heavens!
         
 2 Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants
         You have ordained strength,
         Because of Your enemies,
         That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.
         
 3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
         The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
 4 What is man that You are mindful of him,
         And the son of man that You visit him?
 5 For You have made him a little lower than the angels,
         And You have crowned him with glory and honor.
         
 6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
         You have put all things under his feet,
 7 All sheep and oxen—
         Even the beasts of the field,
 8 The birds of the air,
         And the fish of the sea
         That pass through the paths of the seas.
         
 9 O LORD, our Lord,
         How excellent is Your name in all the earth!

Grade 4 School Supply List  2010-2011

Below is a list of school supplies that you will need for fourth grade.  (I suggest you take advantage of sales and stock up on additional supplies that may run out over the the course of the year, such as markers, colored pencils, glue sticks, erasers and pencils.)  Please, remember to put your name on your supplies.  Please replenish supplies that run out during the year! (This would also be a great time to purchase inexpensive school supplies for Operation Christmas Child shoe box gifts!) 

I would also like you to save shoe boxes, cardboard tubes from paper towels, wrapping paper, and toilet tissue, and round oatmeal containers for projects.  Thanks!
