Old Testament SM Mnemonics

Here are the new Scripture Mastery mnemonics for the Old Testament. One of the most useful (yet hardest) parts of scripture mastery is helping your students to memorized the key words to the references.  Mnemoics are a great way to help your students with this.  The first page is instructions on how to use the mnemonics effectively.  Many teachers print off the mnemonic for the week they are spotlighting that scripture mastery.

This second item is all 25 Mastery mnemonics on 2 pages.  This way you can print a front/back handout for each student and they can quiz each other.  

I will be posting more Scripture Mastery helps for the Old Testament this summer so stay tuned and make sure you sign up for the automated email on the right hand side of the blog page.

Could you make the mnemonics without the reference?

I'm grateful for your ideas - thank you for sharing them so freely!

I'm just getting started with Scripture Mastery this year - as tomorrow we teach the lesson including Moses 1:39. I am concerned about the correctness of the picture for this scripture. Did Moses fast for 40 days? I can't seem to find a reference to this and don't want to use it if it leads the students into believing something that is not correct.

Great question. Moses was 40 days with the Lord as we learn in Exodus 34 (heading). So the real question is, was he fasting during the 40 days. It is a common Jewish tradition that he was fasting, but it does not say either way in the text. So I just went with the tradition. But there are things that have no basis. For instance, Abraham 3:22-23, were the Wise Men 22 to 23 years old. Probably not. It is totally made up to support the SM Mnemonic. So I just tell the kids when it is just something made up. Good luck with everything.

Thanks for the reference. I do see that in Ex 24:18, Moses is on the mountain for 40 days. And then again in Ex 34: 28 along with the note that "he did neither eat bread, nor drink water."

Your website is saving my life! I love it! I'm not getting emails though. Are you still doing that with lesson ideas?
Thanks,
Ann
