Many students grow up hearing Bible stories in Sunday school or from their parents or even from similar homeschooling curricula. The work that these people and programs do for children is very valuable for their growth and maturity. The goal of this curriculum is to go beyond the stories of the Bible and to have students read the Bible itself. In fact, this course, along with the seventh and eighth grade Bible courses in this series, will take the student through the entire Bible. Within these three years, if a student follows the curriculum, he or she will have read the entire Bible. The Student Exercises workbook is divided into four units, each covering forty days of reading. On the top right-hand side of each workbook page is the Bible reading that the student should do for that day. As he or she reads, there are ten questions from the Bible reading that the student is to answer in the Student Exercises. The vast majority of the questions in the workbook can be answered just using the text itself, but there are a few questions that require using outside sources such as a dictionary. Many of these questions are designed to bring out some of the important points in the biblical text. On average, the student will read about two chapters of the Bible per day. Also included on each Student Exercises workbook page is a set of three questions that come from the textbook. This is designed to hold the student accountable for reading through the textbook. This answer key provides answers for all workbook questions. Our desire is to help your students gain deeper insights into the Word of God and learn how to apply it in their lives. May God grant you wisdom as you faithfully seek to guide your students in this study of the New Testament.
