GIRLS TEACHING COMPETITION GUIDELINES 2018 SENIOR/JUNIOR CAMP Only female campers are allowed to compete. There is no limit to the number of competitors from each church, and they are not divided by age groups, as with Music Competition. Girls need only prepare a lesson from one of the listed categories. The lesson should be geared towards a specific target group, such as Grade School or Teens. It is a good idea to use visuals, if at all possible. See the attached form for information on judging criteria. It might be helpful to provide a copy for each entrant so that they may better prepare their lesson for the competition. A minimum of four ladies from participating churches will be needed to judge the competition (one to tally scores). Please contact Mrs. Jennifer Webster, from Grayson Bible Baptist Church in Sherman, with questions or concerns at 903-892-2141 or 972-251-0857.
