Unit Five focused on the letter N for Nest and the coordinating Bible truth was "God takes good care of me." We talked about how parent birds care for their babies and keep them warm, and how God loves us and wants to teach us and help us grow.
Benjamin really enjoyed the Animal Homes game, where you must match the animal with their nest. He also enjoyed making an edible nest as well.
Some supplements we used for this unit:
ABC Memory Verse Cards
In addition to the Bible truth, we are also memorizing a Bible verse that begins with the letter of the week. I received some ACB cards as a gift and they are by Dayspring, but I have also seen these online that would work just as well.
This week our N verse was: "…no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no heart has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him" (1 Corinthians 2:9).
Christian Liberty Press Nature Reader K
This book is perfect for kindergarten, as it has a well-illusrtated animal lesson for each letter of the alphabet. This week we learned about Newts.
Danielle's Place
This is a great site, with TONS of Bible crafts and activities. They had an entire unit on birds. I found a cute activity where Benjamin glued yarn to make a bird's nest and then colored the birds and their nest. See here.
