“Some questions invite inspiration. Great teachers ask those. That may take just a small change of words, an inflection of the voice. Here is a question that might not invite inspiration: ‘How is a true prophet recognized?’ That question invites an answer which is a list, drawn from memory, of the scriptures and the words of living prophets. …
“But we could ask the question this way, with just a small difference: ‘When have you felt you were in the presence of a prophet?’ That will invite individuals to search their memories for feelings. After asking, we might wait for a moment before calling on someone to respond. Even those who do not speak will be thinking of spiritual experiences. That will invite the Holy Ghost.”1
Kara Lewis on 13 Oct 09This website has lesson plans, but especially it has tons of web resources. One of the coolest ones I found was http://web-japan.org/kidsweb/, where there are so many resources to use if you were teaching a unit on Japan. That's just one example. There are tons!
