Mock Oral Recitation Rounds


 

Mock rounds are a great way to prepare for the NBBC Oral Recitation Round.  According to the NBBC Rulebook, contestants "will have 8 minutes to recite 12 memory passages from Summer Study and NBBC Memory Passage Cards". While there is no way to know which passages will be asked in the Oral Recitation Round, we have endeavored to create several lists that will give opportunity to practice as many of the passages as possible in the context of a timed recitation.

Keep in mind that any of the passages from the Summer Study and NBBC Memory Passage Cards may be asked during the Oral Recitation Round. Just because certain passages are not included on these mock round lists, does not mean that they will not be asked. So do your best to be prepared!

Please refer to pages 14-18 of the official NBBC Rulebook (you can find it here or on your family dashboard at biblebee.org) for details about what to expect during the Oral Recitation Round.

All About Scripture Memorization, Part 1

It could be said that the cornerstone of the Bible Bee is scripture memorization.  Participants in the Summer Study will have 2 passages each week to memorize.  These passages will vary in length depending on the age division you are in.  By the end of the 8-week session, you could have memorized as many as 14 Bible passages. Participants who are aiming to qualify for the National Bible Bee Competition will have an even more exciting challenge.  They will need to memorize approximately 600-1,000 verses!  How do children as young as 7 years old accomplish such a huge feat? The answer is simple. Time, effort, and consistency make memorizing any amount of scripture possible.
