In order to plan Bible for our school year, I made these two charts. Since our teens do not study the entire Omnibus program I wanted an overview of its Bible study so I could easily plan their studies.
The first chart shows where in the 6 volumes of Omnibus each Bible book is studied. It also give details about semesters, week number, and whether it is part of Omnibus’s primary or secondary studies.
The second chart shows the order in which the Bible books are studied, along with the details given in the first chart. I was surprised at how little Bible is studied in volume 2, but that is because so much of the year’s work is explicitly related to church history and writings about the Bible.
After the charts and in the final column of both I have included some related resources with links to my reviews.
