Scripture Mastery Games: Texting

Okay, in my previous post I gave an idea to use texting to give scripture mastery clues. Here are the clues for the Doctrine and Covenants scripture mastery that you can give in "text speak". I think I'm going to print them out large on paper and see who can get them first.
If you come up with a better game to use these with, please give me your ideas! I used a "text translator" to come up with these. Here is the link for that site.

Hey, these are pretty cool! I can read them without cheating and looking at the answers! :0)

Thanks. These are great. We used them this morning. I sent a mass text message to my students. The first team to text back the answer got a point, and there was another point for the first team to find the scripture. We had a lot of fun and the kids were really engaged.

Your game sounds better Todd. Now if I only had a cell phone. lol And if I weren't technology challenged to be able to send out a mass message. lol But definitely, your game is the way to go!
