An insulated concrete block assembly includes a plurality of blocks is provided and each of the blocks is comprised of a mixture of 60.0 percent Portland cement, 30.0 percent expanded polystyrene foam and 10.0 percent lime. The blocks are stackable on each other to define an exterior wall of a building. A fluid insulation is pourable into each of the voids in each of the blocks when the blocks are stacked, and the fluid insulation is comprised of 70.0 percent polystyrene foam. 25.0 percent Portland cement and 5.0 percent lime. A tensioning cable is provided and a base of the tensioning cable is embedded into a foundation upon which the blocks are stacked. The tensioning cable is tensioned to a pre-determined tension load when the tensioning cable is routed through the voids of the blocks that are stacked.
