It is a challenging study, but I think it is appropriate for 9th grade. The challenge isn't in the amount of reading, but in the deep thought the questions require. Carrie breaks it up into very manageable pieces. In my opinion the key to this study is to not expect your student to answer exactly like the answer key. The answer key is very complete and I don't think most high schoolers, or actually many adults would come up with everything they list. What I did was if he had part of the answer or even if his answer made sense then we moved on. I would often let him read what the answer key said, just as a learning experience, but I was careful to not let him think he was not doing well in bible. I didn't really grade it hard at all. If he was way off base we would talk about it, but again I didn't want him to think he was getting a bad grade in bible. I think he did learn a lot that year and he learned that studying the bible does require deep thought.
