About this set

What you are getting

A verse is learned by saying it again and again, a little each day, in different ways. This set gives you those different ways on paper. Seventy-two Bible verses, none longer than twenty-five words, are gathered under six themes: trust, courage, kindness, obedience, thankfulness and God’s care. Start with the cut-out verse cards, eight to a sheet, and keep one theme in your pocket for a week. Younger children trace the verse in gray letters on a primary rule and then copy it; older children copy it on lined paper and write it again from memory. The fill-in-the-blank builders take words out a few at a time, with a word bank at the foot of the page, so a child has to remember the verse and not just read it. For families who like a system there is a memory box: divider tabs for every day of the week and every date of the month, a how-to page and blank cards. A 52-week chart keeps the year in view, the coloring strips make a quiet afternoon, and the family matching game turns learning the first half and the second half of a verse into a game around the table. Every verse is in the Berean Standard Bible, copied word for word, and every sheet is free to print for your own family.

How we made these

Made by a homeschool family

We chose seventy-two verses that none of our other books use, so a family who owns the Ezra Scripture Copywork Books or A Verse a Day meets new words here. A program checks each verse against those books, copies it from the Berean Standard Bible by machine, never from memory, and stops if a verse is missing, too long or repeated. The pictures are objects only, such as a lamp, a shield, a staff and a sheaf. Everything a child reads or writes beside is set at 14 points or larger, and every page is checked to fit before it is saved.

Questions

Questions families ask

How many verses are there, and how were they chosen?

There are seventy-two verses in six themes of twelve: trust, courage, kindness, obedience, thankfulness and God’s care. Each is twenty-five words or fewer, from the Berean Standard Bible, and none appears in the Ezra Scripture Copywork Books or A Verse a Day.

What ages are these for?

The trace-and-copy sheets are made for Grades 1 and 2 and use a primary rule. The copy sheets are for Grade 3 and up. The cards, the memory box, the chart and the game work for any age that can read, and a parent can read the cards aloud for younger children.

How do I use the memory box tabs?

Cut out a tab, fold it on the dashed line and tape the flap behind a card. New verses start in the first tab. As a verse is learned it moves to Daily, then to odd or even days, then to a day of the week or a date. The guide page in the memory box PDF walks through it in five steps.

How hard are the fill-in-the-blank sheets?

Level 1 takes one word out of each verse, level 2 takes out three, and level 3 takes out about half the words. Each page has a word bank at the bottom, so a child can work without looking the verse up.

Can I print them on card stock?

Yes. The verse cards, the memory box tabs, the blank cards and the game cards are all meant to be cut out, and they hold up better on card stock. Everything else prints well on ordinary paper.

Is there an answer page?

The builders show the complete verse in the matching card sheets and in the other printables, so a child can check a verse against the cards. The reference is printed on every page.
