About this material

Beginner Quarterly leaflets give teachers and 1st and 2nd grade students an age-oriented Bible commentary, with activities that help beginners understand and engage with each lesson.

Preschool, Beginner, Primary and Junior classes all study the same lesson each week, written for their level. One BDS Teacher book and BDS Visuals serve all four levels.

King James Version only.
