As teachers, we are always trying to make our jobs obsolete. What I mean is, we want to get our students so good at digging into the scriptures and finding gems, that they don’t need us to help them find those treasures in the scriptures. In other words, we want to teach them how to fish rather than just handing them fish we caught in the scriptures.
On the S&I website is a wonderful set of videos of real classes where teachers are doing this training. One is a video of Sister Morgan’s class. In it she shares some powerful quotes with her class and also teaches them “Power Phrases”. Click on the image to download the “Power Phrases” and a bunch of other wonderful quotes by the Brethren concerning scripture study skills.
CAUTION: Don’t overwhelm your class by sharing a bunch of quotes all on the same day. It is probably best to just show one quote on a given day, and then have your kids try modeling that with a set of verses.
