Scriptures to support your doctrine?
I had students write for a couple minutes then share with a neighbor. Then together as a class we listed scriptures on the board and what they taught He was doing.
I need to be better prepared with scriptures and make sure and present an overall clear picture of what happened during this time. Look at the topical guide under spirit prison for some great references

7. How many resurrections are there?

8. Was Jesus the only person to be resurrected?
Matthew 27:52–53

9. Resurrection
 “We have not the ordinance and the keys of the resurrection. They will be given to those who have passed off; they will be ordained by those who hold the keys of the resurrection, to go forth and resurrect the Saints just as we receive the ordinance of baptism. This is one of the ordinances we cannot receive here, and there are many more.” 
Discourses of Brigham Young, pp
See also Spencer W. Kimball, "Our Great Potential," in CR April 1977, pp

10. Resurrection
“I buried my mother when I was eleven, my father when I was in my early twenties. I have missed my parents much. If I had the power of resurrection as did the Savior, I would have been tempted to try to have kept them longer.
We do not know of anyone who can resurrect the dead as did Jesus. This is a power to create, to organize, to control native elements. How limited we are now!” (President Spencer W. Kimball, April 1977 General Conference)

11. Resurrection
“We’re accustomed to thinking that all keys of the priesthood were conferred to Joseph Smith in the Kirtland Temple. But the scripture states that all that…there are other priesthood keys that have not been given to man on the earth, including the keys of creation and resurrection.” (Elder Dallin H. Oaks, April 2014 General Conference)

12. Will we see God as soon as we die?
(Read Alma 40:11)

13. Will we see God as soon as we die?
“These words of Alma as I understand them, do not intend to convey the thought that all spirits go back into the presence of God. ‘Taken home to God,’ simply means that their mortal existence has come to an end, and they have returned to the world of spirits.”
Joseph Fielding Smith, Answers to Gospel Questions, 2:84-86
Alma 40

14. What can we do in the Spirit World?

15. What can we do in the Spirit World?
“The brightness and glory of the next apartment is inexpressible. They move with ease and like lightning. If we want to visit Jerusalem, I presume we will be permitted - there we are, looking at its streets. Or if we want to see the Garden of Eden as it was when created, there we are. We may behold the earth as at the dawn of creation, or we may visit any city we please that exists upon its surface.” (Discourses of Brigham Young, p )

16. What can we do in the Spirit World?
“Each release of a righteous individual from this life is also a call to new labors. Therefore, though we miss the departed righteous so much here, hundreds may feel their touch their. One day, those hundreds will thank the bereaved for gracefully forgoing the extended association with choice individuals here, in order that they could help hundreds there.” (Neal A. Maxwell, Not Withstanding My Weakness, 55).

17. How will the final judgment work?
(Alma 40:12-14)

18. Final Judgment
“On that dramatic day there can be no saving swagger – no panache. Those whose grievance with God will be simply speechless. The promised day of judgment will come, and all men will be left “without excuse.” (D&C 101:93; Romans 1:20.). We will receive what we really chose, and none can or will question the justice or mercy of God.”
Neal A. Maxwell, Things As They Really Are, pp

19. Final Judgment
“In the final day, all men will stand before the bar of God in a final day of judgment. The eventual destiny of all men will have been determined before that day.”
Bruce R. McConkie, The Millennial Messiah, p.515

20. Final Judgment
“When he does judge us, I feel he will take all things into consideration: our genetic and chemical makeup, our mental state, our intellectual capacity, the teachings we have received, the traditions of our fathers, our health, and so forth.”
M. Russell Ballard, “Suicide: Some Things We Know,
and Some We Do Not,” Ensign, Oct. 1987, p. 8

21. Final Judgment
“Worthiness interviews represent the rehearsal stage for final judgment. Such interviews are a blessing, a choice opportunity to account to the Lord through His authorized servants of our sacred stewardship.”
Joseph B. Wirthlin, “True to the Truth,”Ensign, May 1997, p. 16

22. What blessings will be restored when we are resurrected?
(Alma 40:16)

23. Resurrection
“Death releases a spirit for growth and development and places a body in the repair shop of Mother Earth, there to be recast, remolded into a perfect body, clean, whole, perfected, and ready for its occupant for eternity.”
The Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball, p.45 

24. Resurrection
“One day loved ones whom we knew to have disabilities in mortality will stand before us glorified and grand, breathtakingly perfect in body and mind. What a thrilling moment that will be! I do not know whether we will be happier for ourselves that we have witnessed such a miracle or happier for them that they are fully perfect and finally ‘free at last.’”
Jeffrey R. Holland, October 2013 General Conference

25. What will our bodies look like?
(Alma 40:18)

26. Resurrected Bodies
“President Joseph F. Smith said people will come forth "even to the wounds in the flesh. Not that a person will always be marred by scars, for these will be removed in their course, in their proper time...”
Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation 2:

27. Resurrected Bodies
“It is true that Christ showed His wounds to the Nephites to give to them a witness of his suffering. [3 Ne 11:10-17.] These wounds have remained in his hands, side, and feet all through the centuries from the time of his crucifixion and will remain until after his Second Coming.” 
Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation 2:

28. What about cremation and organ donors, etc?

29. The Beauty of the Resurrection
“It makes no difference whether a body is consumed by fire, buried in the depths of the sea, or placed in the tomb, the time will come when every essential particle will be called back again to its own place, and the individual will be reassembled with every essential part restored.”
Joseph Fielding Smith, Answers to Gospel Questions, 2:100

30. In what ways will we look different after we are resurrected?
(Alma 40:25)

31. The Beauty of the Resurrection
“In both of the (lower) kingdoms there will be changes in the bodies and limitations. They will not have the power of increase, neither the power or nature to live as husbands and wives, for this will be denied them and they cannot increase. Some of the functions in the celestial body will not appear. I take it that men and women will, in these kingdoms, be merely immortal beings having received the resurrection. ”
Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, 2:

32. The Beauty of the Resurrection
“We bear the image of our earthly parents, but by…the holy resurrection, we shall put on the image of the heavenly, in beauty, glory, power and goodness.
Brigham Young, Discourses of Brigham Young, p.374
“There is nothing grander that I can imagine than a resurrected body.”
Lorenzo Snow, 5 October 1900, CR, p. 4; Teachings of Lorenzo Snow, p.99
How can this doctrine affect marriage and family relationships?

33. What if you are worried about the Final Judgment?
(Alma 41:9,14)

34. The Final Judgment
“I sat with a youngster and he was fretting. And I said, ‘Son, all you have to worry about is that you are doing your best in the place where you are today. That is all you have to be concerned about. You are not going to be judged by how you measure to someone else. The only measure by which you are going to be measured is, ‘How will you compare with what you had the capacity to do?’”
The Teachings of Harold B. Lee, pp

35. Other Doctrines of the Spirit World?

36. Doctrines of the Spirit World
When a baby dies, it goes back into the spirit world, and the spirit assumes its natural form as an adult.
When a child is raised in the resurrection, that spirit will enter the body and the body will be the same size as it was when the child died. It will then grow after the resurrection to full maturity.
If parents are righteous, they will have their children after the resurrection.
Little children who die, whose parents are not worthy of an exaltation, will be adopted into the families of those who are worthy (Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, comp. Bruce R. McConkie, 3 vols. [ ], 2:56).
