STAR Homeschool Cycle 1 Hymns to Sing and Study

Cycle 1 Hymns to Sing and Study

by

We sing hymns at STAR Homeschool Community every week. You can also sing hymns at home! In our home, we sing two hymns per day. If we sing all of these hymns over the four cycles of the GLC curriculum, our family will learn more than one hundred hymns. Little by little, it adds up!

Hymns to Study

If you would also like to study hymns, you will want to purchase one or more of the following books and download the attached PDF. There is one hymn per week scheduled, with page numbers in several books.

Choose from the following books. My very favorite hymn books are the Hymns for a Kid’s Heart books by Joni Eareckson Tada. They are out of print now, but well worth it if you can find a copy!
