Preparing Your Primary Participant for the NBBC: Choosing Greek/Hebrew Terms and Cross References

 


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.
