Jesus Christ is our cornerstone

Submitted by famliequien on Sat, 10/29/2011 - 12:01pm
I am using Play Dough to demonstrate the importance of a cornerstone. Since it is not a major part of my lesson, I will already have my two walls built and put together. Then, I will ask them which of all the "stones" is the most important stone. ...

Testimony Building, Fourth Article of Faith, Solid Foundation

Submitted by Anonymous on Sun, 06/26/2011 - 2:37pm
I wanted to teach the children about the 4th article of faith and how these principles and ordinances can help us build and strengthen our personal testimony. To do this I needed to build a small table. I was able to cut a piece of particle board into a 6 inch by 4 inch rectangle. Then I found some wooden doweling and cut four, four inch lengths. I then drilled an appropriate size hole that the doweling would squeeze into, and made the depth ...

Someone in this room is being judged.

Submitted by taylanator@sbcg... on Tue, 06/14/2011 - 10:02am
Prepare your lesson on not judging. When setting up your class to teach, have a medium to large ( framed if possible) picture on an easel. Cover the picture with pretty fabric before anyone gets to see who the picture is of. At the beginning of your lesson, point out the covered picture and explain that you have a picture here of someone in your class who has been judged wrongly, and that you will reveal at the end of the lesson who it is. Give y...

Stretch a little Higher, Be a little better, Enlarge thy tent

Submitted by Jenny Smith on Sun, 03/13/2011 - 4:02pm
As a prelude to the lesson, I began by calling a student volunteer to the front of the room. As it happened, it turned out to be the tallest student in the class. I asked him to show how high he could reach. He went over to the wall and rested his verrry long arm at a very tall spot on the wall. Then when it appeared he had reached as high as he could, I asked him to reach a little higher. Invariably, even though the student thought he was reachi...

The First Principles and Ordinances of the Gospel

Submitted by Anonymous on Sat, 11/13/2010 - 12:22pm
Build a small table out of a piece of wood approximately 8 inches by 4 inches. Drill four holes in each corner, and insert wooden dowels cut about 3 inches long as legs for the table. Be sure that the holes are drilled straight so that the legs are straight and the object lesson will work properly. Glue three of the legs into the table. Leave the fourth leg unglued, and use a magic marker to put a small mark on this leg so that you will know whic...

Strength in Your Thoughts

Submitted by Anonymous on Sat, 10/23/2010 - 1:56am
Have the student stand up with one of their arms outstretched straight to the side. Tell them that you are going to apply pressure on their hand and try and push it down. Their job is to keep their arm up in the horizontal position. Ask the student to think about something horrible that has happened to them. When they have said they have thought of something, give them the instruction to "think, think, think about it" as they are doing that apply...

You put an orange in a bucket of water with the peel on and it will. This is related to us having on the armour of God. When you peel the orange, it sinks in the water. We sink when we don't have on the Armour of God. ...

Submitted by Anonymous on Sun, 09/05/2010 - 12:06pm
Place a lightbulb in a glass of water so the metal base is submersed and place in the Microwave. Turn on. The light bulb won't turn on. Remove the glass and place salt in the water. Place in microwave again and turn on. This time the bulb will light up. Analogies: Our good example makes it possible for the light of christ to shine throughout the earth. Light - Light of Christ Salt - People are the salt of the earth ~ our good example or ou...
