Have one student read the scripture aloud while you time how long it takes. Write the time on the board. Now, have one student say the first word, the next student say the next word, the third student say the third word, etc. Time and see how long this takes. Do the same thing again but faster. Can the class beat the time of the original reader?

Pass out 3X5 cards and have the students prepare quizzes on the SM they own (owning means they have chosen scripture masteries ahead of time to lead the class in learning ~Jenny). Make copies and save until the week you are concentrating on that scripture. Quiz ideas: Fill-in-the-blank, first letter only, unscramble (each line on the card will need to be put into the correct order).
