This course is set up for a classroom-type setting. Print one copy for each student. Perfect for putting in binders! (Tip - use the first page for the binder cover)
Grade level - 5th-9th Grades, depending on prior Biblical knowledge.
Students will read verses in the Bible, and answer questions about what they read. This Bible Overview Course helps students learn about stories from the Old and New Testaments, and the important truths God is teaching His people through history. Most importantly, we see how many parts of the Old Testament point to the promise of our Savior - Jesus! The course concludes with Paul’s missionary journeys, and the formation of the early churches. There are review questions at the end of each lesson.
