Perfecting the Saints — One Lesson at a Time
This file can be used to have students summarize For example: “Imagine you are Enos. What would you tweet about your experience with prayer.” or “Imagine you are one of the shepherds who saw angels at Christ’s birth. What would you tweet?” You can even ask students to draw a picture they may have snapped to go along with the tweet.

By the end you could be able to mention a commandment “Honor Father and Mother” and they could be able to say which one it is, “That’s the 5th commandment”. Here is a short explanation1. Looks like when someone is saying “We’re #1”. But…

I did Jacob 5 differently than the manual. The manual is set up for students who have not read Jacob 5, but as you know, the kids in my class read the text and so “discovery” type activities just don’t work for them. How horrible would it be for me to ask kids to slog through Jacob 5 and then make them reread it again in class??? So anyway, I…

Downloaded from: http://seminarymoments.blogspot.com/2013/11/jacob-4-focus-on-christ.html How do we focus on Christ? Jacob 4:14 tells us that many of us look beyond the mark. What is the mark? Elder Neal A. Maxwell tells us the mark is Christ. (Jesus of Nazareth, Savior and King. Ensign, Dec 2007)
Downloaded from: http://seminarymoments.blogspot.com/2013/11/jacob-4-plates.html Jacob tells us in Jacob 4:1-2 that the plates were difficult to write on. But they would preserve the knowledge of his people for their posterity far better than any other means. I took a cereal box and cut it up into rectangles that would fit into their journals. Then covered them in heavy duty foil. Each person was to take a toothpick and write their testimony or something…

Uchtdorf of the First Presidency. ..“At its core, pride is a sin of comparison, for though it usually begins with ‘Look how wonderful I am and what great things I have done,’ it always seems to end with ‘Therefore, I am better than you.’ …“… This is the sin of ‘Thank God I am more special than you.’ At its core is the desire to be admired…

Electronic Device Use of Electronic Scriptures Survey Report, 2012-2013 By Jenny Smith Note from the Author: I originally gave Russell Simon permission to publish this paper on his blog this past summer. Due to some (frankly silly and inconsistently applied) requirements from Seminaries & Institutes, Brother Simon set all Seminary related items on his blog to private. I’ve decided to post the document here in case it offers any help…

I wrote this script to use as a reader’s theater in my Seminary class while teaching Jacob 7.
Downloaded from: http://nwseminaryshare.weebly.com/2/post/2013/11/scripture-mastery-mnemonics-handout.html One of the toughest parts of Scripture Mastery is helping students learn the reference from the key words. A teacher suggested that I put together the new mnemonics on a one page handout like I’ve done with past years. This can help you go over a group of them on a given day. I suggest on one day of the week, you…

This has been a fun few days for me in class. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m back in the groove or because the stress level is back down or what, but things have been good. The only issue has been that I’m barely keeping ahead of the lessons. I did get two lessons planned yesterday, so I am now a single lesson ahead. I’m hoping to get some…
