Book Reviews of Polished Cornerstones
Book Review: Great Weekly Ideas for a Wide Age-Range
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this book about 10 years ago, to supplement my two daughters devotional/life skills home school curriculum. We did not complete the entire book, there is really no need. It is quite versatile, meaning that you can choose chapters based on your specific needs. Within each chapter, there are assignments for girls based on their age; and quite a choice. My husband and I would assign a lesson based on a struggle our girls were going through. They would then help us choose a particular assignment that was age appropriate. They would work on their assignment throughout the week (very small amount of time.) Then we would spend about 1/2 hour with them at the end of the week to discuss results. We would never make it an accusatory session, just a very frank talk of improvements we could all make. Our daughters greatly enjoyed the program and employ many of the skills they learned. (i.e. my oldest daughter and budgeting, my younger daughter (19) in her "courting" with a young man and setting boundaries!
Summary of Polished Cornerstones
Raising daughters can be a challenging task! How will we ever teach them everything they need to know? Polished Cornerstones can help! This 575-page, spiral-bound book will help you focus on the skills and attitudes your daughters need to develop. Polished Cornerstones offers hundreds of different ideas for Bible study projects, reading material, and practical, everyday activities to help prepare your daughters for godly womanhood (and to help them live godly lives as young women). Polished Cornerstones is a tool that allows you to be flexible, picking and choosing from a variety of projects to meet each daughters unique needs. Projects in each chapter are listed in order according to increased difficulty so that you can start work in each area with very young girls, and continue to disciple your daughters with increasingly more challenging assignments. Each project is also labeled with the school subjects it relates to so that homeschoolers can incorporate projects into their academic school day. Each chapter includes evaluation questions for parents and daughters. These help pinpoint weak areas, stimulate discussion, and lead to more specific prayer with and for your daughters. Includes many charts and forms to encourage serious family and independent Bible study. Your daughter will learn how to be a student of the Word as she completes these projects. Reproducible forms mean that one copy of this book will serve for all your daughters (and maybe even a few granddaughters!). Resource lists at the back of the book make it easy to locate and purchase supplementary resources. Spiral-Bound for easy use.Book Subjects
