Bible Bee Chat Room

I'm starting to compose Scripture songs for the 2015 Local passages!

Oh my… xP That doesn't look like her at all. XD

Yay! I'm trying to myself :)

Does John use Roman time or Jewish time? I've read conflicting opinions…

Me too. I've been thinking in terms of Jewish time, "It was about the 6th hour" meaning 12 noon-ish, but maybe it would be a good idea to know both…

Another BB family? We did that last year, and I guess we'll do it again. We had them over for supper, and we all gathered in our living room, and us 8 contestants quoted :)

That might work (if we felt pretty certain that they knew the passages)! I may suggest that to Daddy :).

gasps Week 2 is even longer than Week 1… O_O

Oh no….. =/ xP

Oh no..... =/ xP

I'm glad I decided to read through this, I hadn't seen that when we signed up. Maybe they just added that in the last few weeks.

Do you know if we can choose the passages, or will they provide a list?

Oh no..... =/ xP

THE RULEBOOK IS OUTTTTTTTT. goes to read it

whew the oral recitation is required in order to qualify.

Really? Like last year's or like an oral round?

screams

covers ears xD Haha, I did too, just about. XDDD

Like last years. :)

Where is the rulebook? I looked on the website, but I can't find it.

_*Quote:* Okay, can someone please help me understand? I got my usb in the Bible Bee box today and I managed to get the study guide copied on to it. But now I'm confused. I thought that I could type on the lines provided, but it only gives me the option to add a note. Can I edit the file or do I have to make a note? btw this is my first post ever in the forums and I'm very excited_ Hi Mac welcome to the forums :) The study guide has to be printed out.

Actually, you are supposed to be able to type on the lines if you download it as a pdf. It works for my siblings' Primary and Junior studies, but not for my Senior one. :/

Are you still having this problem? If you're using Preview to view the Study Guide, you should be able to just double click on the lines and add text.

It's under the Family Resources once you login to your Family Control Panel. Not sure if it's accessible if you're not logged in.

They didn't give the info I wanted about the test :\ I'll have to ask them tomorrow at the webinar.

So the webinar was cancelled yesterday? How can I register for today's?

Rachel, if you go to the webinar, can you please tell me about it then? I won't be here to watch it :(

Yes, if I am able to go! :)

I can't figure out how to register for today's…..

It's right on the home page - "Live Webinar" under Participate. ;)

I clicked that, but there is no place to register for a webinar today.

Hmm. My mom said the webinar had been rescheduled, that's all I know.

well, okay. If your mom goes, please fill both Bella and I in, as I can't find the link. xP

Today's webinar was for hosts/proctors actually… I think my mom might have misunderstood somehow. :P Oh well. I did get the info that the ratio of memory to knowledge in the test will be approximately 50% like previous years. :)

Oh, awesome! Are you meaning from the memory verses?

Thanks for the help! It is working for me now. I have it converted into Word, saved to my usb, and now I can edit it.

Pre-Release verse cards are out :) They're a different size though, so if you want your cards to be the same size, print them at about 94% smaller than what you printed the Locals verses.

Whoops, the Local cards are already included in the Pre-Release Nats verses, so nevermind :P

I have seen on the bible bee faq page that we must select our status (Competing/ not-competing for nationals) by July 20th. Does anyone know where we do that?

I don't know, but you would need to log in to your Family Control Panel.

I need help… We're in a hotel room right now, and I'm very behind on the study. What should I focus on for this last month? ^aaaaaahhhh^ I don't like how the SG takes so long. :/

I think there's still time to catch up… Mostly you should probably get yourself really familiar with everything in the SG. If you don't have time then don't worry right now about the pre-release National passages or any other extra study. will be praying for you!

Hooray, week 3 is released xD

Hooray, week 3 is released xD

squuueeeeeeeeaaaaaaaallllllsssssssss :D

SUper!

Oh my goodness, I am so happy. The Bible bee just sent out an email saying they will be having an official practice test run sometime before August 1st!!!!

Thanks. :) I miss having a hard copy of the SG. Makes it way easier to study. :(

Yay! That means I can do it at camp! :)

Just do as many days of the SG as you can. Since they released Week 3 early, try to get ahead so you have as much time as possible to review. I'd say aim for about three SG lessons a day and you'll catch up with time to review.

Ok, thanks! I'll definitely try. :)

Are they still doing the Bible Bee live quizzes? If so, where?

Right here! :)
