Following is Seminary Mom's scripture mastery game idea:

Preparation

1. I cut out circles of paper using the base of a small glass for tracing a well-rounded circle (not that a perfect circle really matters).

2. I wrote the historical setting on each individual circle for twelve of the scripture masteries I wanted to focus on for the day. (I found the historical setting on the front of the scripture mastery cards given the students. On another day, I might write the doctrinal teaching or missionary application, etc.)

3. I placed the circles in the muffin tin with the writing all "face up". (As we played the game, we turned over the papers "face down" once that scripture had been done.)

(Probably obvious, but I prepared all this before class :0)

Our Stake primary pres. sponsored a stake quarterly activity based on pioneer day. Each of the 10 wards/branches were responsible for 2 booths. We were given a list with ideas on it or we could list our own ideas and do those. It was so FUN. Here are some of the booths that the children loved everyone was encouraged to wear pioneer clothing.

panning for gold - screening sand with a penny hidden in it.

milk the cow - wooden cow with glove utter

collecting eggs- stuffed animal chickens on nest boxes with plastic eggs.

digging potatoes- large box of cedar chips with potatoes and shovels

hanging laundry- wet clothes on clotheslines strung between trees

horseshoes

butter making

old fashioned pictures

hand cart rides

hand cart candy craft

petting zoo
