Lesson Plans: November 2014

-To go with the week 1 theme of faith, teach the song “Faith”
-The Sharing Time plan for the first week involves teaching the story of Samuel the Lamanite.  Reinforce this message and get a jump on Christmas by teaching “Samuel Tells of the Baby Jesus.”
-The second week Sharing Time theme is “Prayer is reverent communication with Heavenly Father.”  Explain what reverence means by teaching “Reverence is Love” or teach about Prayer by reviewing the songs “A Child’s Prayer” or “Children All Over the World.”
-Review types of prayer with this activity.

-During Sharing Time on the third week, children will learn the story of the Anti-Nephi-Lehis (Ammonites).  Continue this story by talking about the Stripling Warriors.  Then teach a song which mentions them, such as “Holding Hands Around the World,” “I am a Stripling Warrior,” or “We’ll Bring the World His Truth.”
Lesson Plans:  November 2014
-If you are celebrating Thanksgiving this month, try the Thanksgiving Gratitude Activity or play the Hot Potato Game (maybe with a sweet potato?)
-If you’re celebrating Guy Fawkes Day (UK), try the fireworks activity.  Maybe don’t mention why you do fireworks on this holiday…
-Depending on which hemisphere you live, try one of the autumn or spring activities.
