I would show a reference to a scripture mastery and all of the students at once would begin reciting the scripture out loud. It would become obvious that some of the students knew the verse well, and others did not. They would get bumped up to the row in front of them. If it was a vote down, the opposite would be true. The row receiving the new player would have to decide on someone to move out so they could fit in. Prep Time and Items : A big thing of puffed cheeseballs or cheetos, and a couple pieces of paper.
This game was a yearly tradition in my class and students talked and laughed about it regularly. Two teams. You say a scripture mastery and 3 students on a side have to stand up as soon as they know the reference.
As soon as a team has 3 people who know it, then you ask one of them what it was. The correctly answering student is handed a crumpled piece of paper. A large target is drawn on the chalkboard.
The correctly answering student must throw the crumpled paper and hit the target. If they hit the center ring, they get 3 points, 2 for the middle ring, one for the outside ring. Two actually. The losing team has a player lay on the ground on their back under the chalkboard.
The second twist was what made the students laugh uncontrollably and really made the game silly and fun. It also helps the students learn the scripture masteries well because multiple people on each team must know the answer.
Just give it a try. The winning team gets a few puffed cheeseballs each from one of those giant plastic jars of cheeseballs that you can buy inexpensively at Walmart. Prep Time and Items : A crumpled piece of paper and two trash cans, or else a basketball and a gym. Use a paper ball as your basketball. Sometimes we played this game in the classroom, and sometimes in the gym with a normal basketball since we met in a church building.
I often found that students could easily memorize references, but I wanted them to learn HOW to use the scriptures.
So for this game I would explain a life situation and ask the students what scripture mastery they could use to help the person in the situation. What scripture could remind you to not participate?
There will likely be a few scriptures that could be good answers, and all should be accepted if they can be reasonably justified. The team who won the point can always take the ball from the opposing team if they can reach the ball, and then can pass the ball 3 times to their own team without moving their feet. The opposing team must stay still, but can wave their arms to block passes or shots.
A crumpled piece of paper is placed in the center of the room on the ground and all tables chairs should be out of the way. The players are in a line on their team. The two players in the front of the line are asked a scripture mastery question. Prep Time and Items : Be sure each team of students has at least one cell phone among the group.
This game is great because students can use their cell phones, which they always enjoy. It also is a good opportunity for students to share a scripture on their social media when the game is over.
Split the class into small teams of four. Have one student from each team leave the room. Write a scripture reference on the board. The remaining students on the team look up the verse and then take out a cell phone and take a photo of themselves acting out a clue to that scripture mastery. When the student from the hall returns, they have to guess. If they get it right, the team gets a point. Bring a large package of plastic or paper cups. Divide the class into two teams and give each team an equal number of cups.
Set a table under the chalkboard. Ask a difficult scripture mastery question. As soon as the entire team is standing, the team can rush forward to the table and begin building their tower of cups. As soon as the opposing team is all standing, then the cup-building team must stop immediately. The teacher draws a line on the chalkboard equal with the top of the cup pyramid—showing how high they got.
The tower is taken down for the next question. The object of the game is to build the tallest tower. At the end of the class, the team with the highest line on the chalkboard wins.
This game is very similar to 9, but is a twist on it that may be fun. When we played this game one year, we spent the first half of the class building towers, and the second half of the class destroying them.
Each team gets 12 cups and builds a traditional cup tower with them on the table at the front of the class. The winning team throws a crumpled paper ball at the pyramid and gets as many points as the number of cups that fall to their side when hit.
Prep Time and Items : Bring a piece of paper, chalk, a chalkboard, and draw a picture on the board before class. Before class begins, draw a baseball player on the chalk board holding a bat, standing at home plate ready to hit a ball. Chances are you have a student who likes to draw and will feel special if you ask them to come early to class to draw the picture the next day. Ask scripture mastery questions to both teams. Whichever team answers correctly has a pitcher go up to the mound and pitch a ball at the board.
Encourage them to use a big wind up like a real pitcher to add some fun. If they hit the middle, three points, then two points for the second ring, and one point for the outside ring.
As the teacher, make the game fun! Call Ssssstttteeeeeerike! Foul ball! Be willing to let loose and have some fun so your students can feel comfortable letting loose as well. This is a quick game that you could do in as short as 5 or 10 minutes at the end of a class period on a Friday or when you can feel that your students need a little break from the routine.
Each student puts their card to their forehead and the other students in the classroom give them clues about their scripture. Prep Time and Items : Bring a string and a couple pieces of tape, as well as a piece of paper. Before class, split the chairs into four lines—two lines on each side—facing each other. Then stretch a piece of string from wall to wall between the seats and tape each end to the walls. Ask a scripture question. They simply throw it over the net. The other team can only stop the serve by catching the paper before it hits the ground.
If the ball hits the ground, the serving team scores. If it is caught, there is no point. Now ask another question. Split the class into two teams. Games can aid in learning the biblical scriptures. These games can be played by individuals or in teams. Based on the party game, the players try to guess a word or phrase from their teammate's drawings.
Create a series of cards containing words or ideas from the scriptures that players have to guess. Include different categories, such as people, events, stories, quotations and places. Divide the players into two teams. One team player takes one of the cards without showing it to his teammates. He then announces the category and draws it. If his teammates cannot guess the answer in a specified amount of time, the other team can make a guess. Whichever team guesses correctly gets a point.
Give players a quote from the scriptures. The first person to find it in the Bible receives one point and a chance to shoot a ball into the basketball hoop. If he scores, he receives an additional point. An alternative is to play this as a team game; everyone on the team has to be open to the correct page to win the point.
The first person in the group names any biblical person. The next player has to identify another person whose name starts with the last letter of the previous name and play continues in this manner. For example, Jesus -- Saul -- Luke -- Eve. For an additional point, each player must give one fact about the person he names.
