Food is definately a good thing, but don't worry, there are other ways, too. I remember it helped keep the kids awake if I walked around and got close to them when i taught and when I asked them things. Rearranging the chairs often also helped make the classroom more interesing. I remember doing role playing with and without props during lessons, too. I'm excited for you. I know you'll be a lot of fun.Karina Moraleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14746130553768675887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691559486171687852.post-91538893430586994682008-05-19T13:50:00.000-06:002008-05-19T13:50:00.000-06:00The only games in seminary that got my class "invo...The only games in seminary that got my class "involved" was when we did scripture mastery chases and food was involved. One game we played often was kinda like yankee swap. The teacher brought a variety of candy bars and the first person to find the scripture picked a candy bar. The next round whoever found the scripture first could pick a new candy bar or steal and so on... until all of the candy was gone. <BR/><BR/>Another teacher made us sit with different groups every 2 weeks and as a team we got participation points (for answering questions), attendance points (only if you were on time), and points for each person who could get to the scripture mastery within 15 seconds. At the end of the 2 weeks she would bring that group doughnuts or something. I must say more people were on time and participated. It's amazing how food can be a strong motivator.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11654034752681918593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691559486171687852.post-69920584290787341242008-05-16T10:49:00.000-06:002008-05-16T10:49:00.000-06:00Yeah, I'm so excited for Batman and Indiana Jones,...Yeah, I'm so excited for Batman and Indiana Jones, too.

I think that after my sophomore year I grew more comfortable with the idea of discussing the gospel in a school-like setting.<BR/><BR/>Maybe its just me but maybe laying out the notion of saying whatever you want/feel without the fear of retribution since we're all brothers and sisters in the gospel-type dealio.<BR/><BR/>But then again, maybe it was just me.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15109577495839491295noreply@blogger.com
