Here is a fun way to introduce a Bible unit to your students. My Biblical quotations quiz, “Haven't I Heard That Before?” is a fun way to begin any Bible study. Just pass out the 3-paged quiz and instruct your students to read the quotations and circle the "Yes" if they believe it originates with the Bible or "No" if they believe it doesn't. When everyone is finished, you can use the included answer sheets to go over the quizzes and see how everyone did. When I have used this in my Bible classes, there has been much speculation and some surprises when the answers are revealed. This activity would work on the high school aged students and older.

Here is a creative way to teach the book of Jonah.

I have included teaching notes, introductory ideas, illustrations and worksheets that are both completed and left blank for the class to fill in.

Introduction - There have been studies conducted on the human brain that show that when someone associates a number or sequence of numbers with events, they have better recall with them than without them.

It is in consideration of these studies that a helpful tool for pastors, Bible teachers, small group or Bible study leaders is a guide of numbers that connect with events in Old Testament times, concentrating on Genesis and the life of David. I have included a chart of numbers that connect with these events, along with corresponding references in the Bible where this information is revealed. Included are 35 sets of numbers.

A word of caution: I think it’s important to remember, however, that numbers are not holy nor hold any magic or mystical qualities of any kind.

Memory in motion - Learning the books of the Bible, in order, is vital for finding your way around the Bible. There are 66 books total in the Old and New Testaments combined. This is a fun and active way to teach the order of the books of the Bible PLUS your pupils will gain a general idea of the content of each book.

Here is a creative way to introduce a New Testament Bible unit to your students.

My New Testament Terms worksheets give you both 19 vocabulary words with the definitions and the same worksheets without the definitions, in case you would like your classes to fill them in as you go. Knowing and understanding these New Testament terms are vital in understanding the Gospels and many other sections of the Bible.

This activity would be ideal on the high school level and older.
