So we have a Sunday school class (me and Stacie Bigler) of 12 boys and 2 girls. You can imagine what that is like so as an incentive I have a small jar that we have been filling up with beans each time they bring their scriptures, do homework assignments from the previous week, participate, have a good attitude and anything else worthy of a bean. We started doing this incentive program because the class was way out of control and as soon as we introduced a jar of beans for good deeds and the reward of a party when the jar was full they shaped up and have been a very good class and have learned a lot. So when they got the jar of beans filled up we decided to have a party at (my parents house) We had stick pull, water balloon volleyball, water fights with buckets, which they thought it was fun to soak sister Jones with :) and an Ice cream party. It was a ton of fun. Stacie is moving at the beginning of August and I am done at the end of August. So they will be splitting the class and getting new teachers. It has been a fun summer getting to know these kids and finding new ways of teaching them the old testament. I know I have learned a lot! Good times!
