God's Word needs to be presented to our kids.... it can be done MANY ways...here is my short list!
Techniques/Strategies:
·
Live it
(let kids see you read, question, think, and process this living Book!)
·
Talk about
it (book club, at dinner, in normal conversation)
·
Read it (in
many formats)
o
and as a good reader (asking ?, visualizing,
connecting, clarifying, summarizing)
o
at your reading level (Bibles at 2nd
grade reading levels-adult)
o
at your interest level (pictures, comics, with
notes, as a novel)
o
as a storybook (with excerpts, pictures,
questions)
o
in devotionals
o
on blogs
·
Study it
(must be taught how!)
o
With tools (bible.org, concordance, maps, word
study)
o
With methods (SOAP, inductive, ?)
o
By book, by chapter, by verse, by topic
o
Alone, with a partner, with a group, online
·
Think about
it (critical thinking essential: evaluate, analyze, synthesize for meaning)
·
Pray through
it and before/during/after reading.
·
Meditate
on
it.
·
Sing about
it.
·
Listen to it
(in music, sermons, recitations)
·
Act it out
(skits, charades, storytelling, drama, movies)
·
See it
(pictures, movies)
·
Live
it…
(and remind that it is alive in me, my choices, my decisions)
