Preparing Your Primary Participant for the NBBC: Memory Passage Memorization & Review

  


So, your 7-10 just qualified for the National Bible Bee Competition for the first time.  Congratulations!  But now what do you do?  This guide for parents will walk you through how to prepare your Primary participant for the competition.  From selecting cross references to organizing the memory passages, I hope that these audio recordings will be a helpful resource on your Bible Bee journey.

While listening, please keep in mind that these are my personal views and thoughts about the competition.  They do not reflect what will be on the Multiple Choice Test or the Oral Preliminary Rounds.  As always, I am just a parent who enjoys making study materials that I can share and I also like talking all things Bible Bee prep.

The audio links may take a moment to load.  Thank you for your patience.  :)

So, you've studied Daniel 1-6, and learned all your cross-references, Hebrew and Aramaic words, and historical background, and you're wondering if you know enough.  The next thing to do is take a practice test to evaluate what you've studied well, and what you may need a little more practice on . . . .
