Matthew Bible Verse Copywork – MFW ECC Printable Pages

Download printable Matthew Bible verse copywork pages to supplement the My Father’s World Exploring Countries & Cultures homeschool curriculum.

We have used the My Father’s World homeschool curriculum for over ten years! I think it suffices to say that we love the program! It has been a true blessing for our family.

As with all of our MFW curriculum, I have created printables and copywork pages to go along with the Bible verses learned in the cycle.

The first curriculum package in the My Father’s World 3rd – 8th grade learning cycle is Exploring Countries & Cultures. The Bible verses covered during this year of the program come from the book of Matthew and coordinate with those included in the curriculum.

These Bible copywork pages are a wonderful way to incorporate handwriting and penmanship while working to memorize the verses.

The coordinating Bible verses are great to either hang on the wall or place in a notebook for review purposes.

PLEASE NOTE: These printables were designed for use by 2nd and 3rd graders using the My Father’s World Exploring Countries & Cultures curriculum.

Lastly, I created these printables to coordinate with the original version of the MFW ECC curriculum. I am not certain if they coordinate with the current version available.
