Also - I'm a great believer in bribery, but I call it "rewarding" instead. :0) We always used candy or treats for rewards. I used to give my kids something every week as encouragement to memorize their scripture mastery scriptures. Sometimes it would be a piece of candy and when I gave it to them, I would have a sort of "slogan" written on a little tag that I would put on the candy that I made up to go along with it. Like lets say a little mini-Twix bar: "Just Twix you and me, I think you're smart enough to memorize all 25 Scripture Masteries!" Sometimes I'd go to the party aisle at Hobby Lobby and find party favors on sale and use those instead. Like a Superman plastic ring with the tag: "You're doing a Super job memorizing your Scripture Masteries!" I felt like it sort of rewarded the ones who were really working hard, and the ones who weren't working that hard sort of felt guilty getting it so they would try harder. I saw the results with all 4 classes that I taught. If I was at home I could tell you the percentages of how many kids memorized all 25 scriptures, but right now I can't remember. I know that my last class tried to make a goal of everyone in the class memorizing all 25 scriptures. Not all made it, but I know at least 3/4 of the class did and the rest of the class were close.Nenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13847303868378288229noreply@blogger.com
