Storyboarding your Scripture Memory Verses

Published on Updated on Scripture Memory

Some people are visual learners. How can visual learners make their Scripture Memory tools more visual?

 

 

Visual learners rely on visual imagery to help them learn. And memorize.

However, the standard tools for Scripture Memory are not so visual: cards, ebooks, and audio recordings.

 

INDIVIDUAL VERSES

 

What if we make a sketch to accompany each verse? That way, each verse becomes visual, like a comic book or graphic novel or a stained glass window.

It would add the whole new dimension of visual imagery.

It’s a lot easier to remember a picture. The picture can help you remember the text.

In my own life, I still remember sketches from comic books that I read when I was a child.

Do you think you could make sketches of your upcoming verses?

 

WHOLE CHAPTERS

 

We can do a similar thing for entire chapters.

Make a sketch of each verse in the chapter. Assemble all the sketches into one, like a comic book.

Make the sketches for each verse flow from one to another.

 

SUGGESTIONS

 

Be creative! Let your imagination flow!

Use any artistic materials that work for you: pencil, pen, crayon, marker, oil paint, watercolor, Photoshop, etc.

If you’re not so artistically gifted, you can bring in other people to help you. Maybe they will even do it for you.

Your sketch could include the text of that verse.

You can scan your sketches and load them into your mobile device. That way you always have them with you.
