This is post number IV of Are You Smarter than Your Teacher?

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacher. Wisdom, teacherIn the first post I explained what is behind the title and covered the first two categories of the game I included in a lesson on Psalm 119. In the second and third posts I covered the next four categories.

We will now continue on with the last two categories.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherThe next category is Anatomy.

I teach Anatomy in many of my courses. So I liked this subject.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherList at least 3 Body Parts mentioned in Psalm 119.

There are more than three body parts, and I will share some of them here.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherPsalm 119:131 mentions the mouth which is a very common body part in scripture.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherPsalm 119:135 mentions the face. Hopefully you have a shiny face.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherPsalm 119:171-172 talks about lips and the tongue which go together, especially when we praise God and teach one another through the songs that we sing.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherPsalm 119:136 mentions eyes that shed tears.

The eye verses in the Bible have a lot of meaning to me since I work in Eye Care.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherThe last category is Phys Ed.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherName at least 3 Physical Actions from Psalm 119.

I will also take a look at why people had a hard time winning on Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader? and how we can apply what we learn to our lives today.

Are You Smarter than Your Teacher? – III

This is post number III of Are You Smarter than Your Teacher?

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacher. Wisdom, teacherIn the first post I explained what is behind the title and covered the first two categories of the game I included in a lesson on Psalm 119. In the second post I covered the next two categories.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherThe next category is Speech.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherI really liked Speech class in High School and one of the things we needed to do was memorize things. The challenge with this question is probably not knowing the words of some of the verses in Psalm 119, but to know that they are from the Psalm. There are some very well know verses in this Psalm.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherPsalm 119:9 is a very well known verse, but many do not know it is in this Psalm.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherJust two verses later is another well known verse about storing up the word in your heart.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherPsalm 119:18 is an eye opening verse 🙂 Help us to behold wondrous things.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherA list of well know verses from Psalm 119 would not be complete without verse 105. I would think of this verse every morning as I would climb up to a dig site in Israel before the sun came up to light the way.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherThe next category is Music.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherName 3 songs in our Hymnal based on Psalm 119.

Did you know that there are a lot of songs based on Psalm 119?

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherOne of the reasons that so many verses in the Bible are turned into songs are because they help us learn. Psalm 119:54 says that “Your statutes have been my songs”.

Psalm 119, Are you smarter than your teacherHere is a list of songs that are in the hymnal we use that are based on Psalm 119. I would imagine that you know most of these songs and have sung them often. Did you know that they came from Psalm 119?

In the next post we will cover the Anatomy and Phys Ed questions.
