Deep Beauty
Such a wonderful reminder and message. I loved it the moment I started watching so I wanted to share it with you all. Sister Dalton gives an amazing talk that inspired the video. Click HERE to read the talk (there is a link provided) or to share/learn …
Accept and Act: PP value exp. to go with lessons
If you are like me, you try to have the girls apply personal progress values experiences with each of your lessons as suggested in the resource manual. However, since you can only find the resource manual online, I thought I would create a PDF document…
Online Seminary Training
I wrote a little bit last week on the online resources for Seminary training, but my internet connection flipped out and the blog entry was lost before it could save. :( So I’m going to try to reconstruct was I was doing last week to prepare for Seminary. I didn’t spend a whole lot of time on Seminary toward the end of the week because I was trying to finish…

Starting to Plan …. Seminary
Well, now I finally have my materials to begin Seminary. In this area, the S&I rep has created a method whereby he hopes that the callings are issued, which was unfortunately ignored by our stake, and many of us are just now receiving our materials. It must really suck to be an S&I person. You’re in charge and accountable for overseeing Seminary in a given area, but you have no…

Temple Work
Hold up the candy and say ” I need a volunteer, and maybe this will encourage you,” Give the volunteer the opened candy bar and say this is your task “eat chocolate, but you cannot bend your arms or waist or legs. Imagine that you don’t have joints.” Have her struggle for a bit and then hold up another chocolate bar and say “Can I have another volunteer?” Follow the…

Example of Christ
Beforehand set up two tables next to each other. On one table build a structure with one set of blocks (the more complex the better); place a box over it to make sure it cannot be seen. On the other table provide a stack of blocks identical to the ones used to build your structure. Choose a child to come up to the table with the stack of blocks. Try…

Presentation of a Lesson
You have a really good cake on the table. You ask if anybody would like a piece of cake. Pick someone, tell them to come up to the front and put on the apron (it is a messy cake). Then, grab a piece of cake with your hands, and throw it at the unsuspecting victim. Ask the rest of the class if they would like a piece of cake. (hopefully…

It’s in the Presentation
To begin the lesson, pass around the muffin box with a mix inside. Have students look at the box. Smell the box. Ask them what their opinions are. “It’s just a box.” Next pass around the freshly made muffins in the basket. Ask the students to look at the muffins and smell them. What is the difference? “The second one is more interesting, desirable.” With the muffin box, it didn’t…

The Importance of Being Spiritually Prepared
Soon after you begin teaching the class, ask for a volunteer to come up. When someone has come up, ask them to finish teaching the lesson and then sit down. After they have been trying to teach something for a short while, stand up and ask them how they felt. Ask if it would have been a little bit easier if you had given them some time to prepare their…

Lesson preparation
When teaching primary teachers the importance of being prepared and knowing their lesson material relate it to the cake, which is on display. Talk about how desirable it is, how it took time to prepare it and make it. Compare this to the lesson manuals and helps put out by the church for teaching. They are desirable and someone has gone to much time to prepard them for us to…
