I love object lessons and clearly Jon Robert Howe loves them as well. In most of these object lessons he tells about how he got them or the history or evolution of them. With the added history that comes with the object lessons, it makes it interesting how some of them came about. He relates how he had a calling as a Teacher Trainer in his ward. Before a teacher development meeting he called each teacher and asked them bring their most memorable object lesson to the class. They ended up with 30 object lessons on the chalkboard. They then shared their favorite object lessons. Many of these, with the history behind them, are in this book. He quotes some of these stories in an Ensign article he wrote for the October 1997 issue.<br \/>\nOf course he talks about how Christ used everyday objects to illustrate the doctrines that he wanted to teach. These objects were familiar to the listeners and they were able to immediately relate to them and then apply something they know to something they may not understand. And this is true with the object lessons in this book.<br \/>\nHe renames object lessons as Teaching Moment Boosters or TMB\u2019s, incorporating not just objects but stories, parables, (insert your favorite teaching method from the chapter \u201cMethods of Teaching\u201d in &#8220;Teaching No Greater Call&#8221;). There are at over 50 TMB\u2019s in the book.<br \/>\nSome of the object lessons he gathers from other sources and gives the YouTube addresses at the end of the description of the object lesson.<br \/>\nSome of the object lessons in this book I have seen before, but most of them are unique and I look forward to start using them in my classes. Some of the TMB\u2019s are stories instead of object lessons, like the familiar Paderewski piano concert story where a young boy walked up to the stage and started playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. At that point the great piano Master quickly runs to the piano and says, \u201cDon&#8217;t quit, keep playing,\u201d and Paderewski with his left hand filled in the bass part and with his right hand reached around the boy and added a running obbligato. The old master transformed a frightening situation into a wonderful experience. The message taught &#8212; whatever we accomplish on our own always results in great and flowing music with the hand of the Master surrounding us.<br \/>\nAny teacher can benefit from the TMB\u2019s in the book, as it will enhance your teaching.<br \/>\nI\u2019m looking forward to future volumes of TMB\u2019s.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>What Is A TMB? &#8212; Samples &amp; Downloads<\/h1>\n<p><strong>DOWNLOAD a sample of THREE TMBs in PDF format:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cmichaelperry.com\/zionbookworks\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/SampleTMBsFOR-SITE.pdf\">SampleTMBs<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The Very Beginning<\/li>\n<li>Object Lessons That Motivate<\/li>\n<li>Marketing Vitamin TMB<\/li>\n<li>Some Advice For My Brother Who Will Soon Serve A Mission<\/li>\n<li>Memorial Paper Doll<\/li>\n<li>As You Teach \u2013 Get \u2018em Up And Moving<\/li>\n<li>After All, We Teach The Old Testament<\/li>\n<li>Missionaries Need More Enthusiastic Creativity!<\/li>\n<li>Lifesaving Purity<\/li>\n<li>TMB Meaningful Pursuit Game<\/li>\n<li>Harvesting Object Lessons \u2013 General Conference<\/li>\n<li>Sharing Your Testimony<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin TMB \u2013 The Evolution of Object Lessons<\/li>\n<li>Layers of Testimony<\/li>\n<li>Teacher Development Twist<\/li>\n<li>Tithing First \u2013 Apples<\/li>\n<li>Friends and Testimonies: Black Acorn Shells<\/li>\n<li>The Parable of the Bicycle \u2013 Atonement<\/li>\n<li>The Corollary to the Parable of the Bicycle \u2013 Atonement<\/li>\n<li>Scripture Study Cuts The Static<\/li>\n<li>Salt &amp; Pepper: Repentance and the Atonement<\/li>\n<li>Eternity Is A Piano Wire<\/li>\n<li>Heavenly Father Will Help You Create A Masterpiece \u2013 The Atonement<\/li>\n<li>A CTR Youth Leadership Lesson\u2026With A Ring To It<\/li>\n<li>Clean Priesthood Vessels<\/li>\n<li>Choosing The Best Media<\/li>\n<li>Choices<\/li>\n<li>The Holy Ghost As A Comforter<\/li>\n<li>The Best Church Instructors Know How To \u201cPlay The Organ\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Parable Of The Conductor\u2019s Baton<\/li>\n<li>1<sup>st<\/sup> YouTube Parable Of H2W Talents, Crafts &amp; Fine Arts<\/li>\n<li>The Enduring List<\/li>\n<li>What Does God Do For A Living?
