Speed

What’s on my back?

Scripture Mastery Games

(I like to use this game when I’m teaching the Golden Rule or cooperation, etc. The students usually think this is a competition—see who can find their matching partner first—but when all is said and done, I only give the prize if everyone was able to find their partner before the timer dings. (Although, I don’t tell them this at first). Because there is no talking allowed, this usually doesn’t…

The students compete only against the person sitting next to them, and all students will be chasing simultaneously. The teacher gives clues and announces “chase”. When the students locate the scripture they hold their book above their heads and…
