On Sunday November 17th I did sharing time in primary. The lesson was about Temporal
Blessings. I usually do 3 to 4 activities to keep the children busy and not
bored. I usually start doing an activity to find out the topic of the lesson.
It could be a puzzle, matching games, looking for a picture hidden in the
classroom, invisible ink, etc. After that I start teaching the lesson. At the
end I finish with a fun activity related to the lesson. It could be word
search, pop balloons and answer questions, etc. For Senior sharing time I
change a little bit the lesson. I also use the scriptures more with them. To
finish the complete lessons I show a short video related to the lesson. I find
these videos in mormon channel. I like to keep the children busy with different
activities so that they don't get bored. It really works!
This Week I found a great idea on the internet about a turkey toss game. I made
the turkeys and got some beanbags. It was very easy. My children have a lot of
fun. My lesson was about temporal blessings. I put some questions in the back
of each turkey tails. Once the children knocked the turkey off the table by
throwing the bean bag they had to answer the question. Of course the questions
were related to the topic of the lesson.
This is how I did the turkey game:
I printed the tails on colored cardstock and the feet on orange cardstock. I
also taped 2 coins to the bottom of the feet so that the turkey stands up
right. The head and front of the turkey I printed on white cardstock. I
embellished them by coloring the tips of the feathers and the giblet. I used a
balloon for the body. I made 12 turkeys. I put them on a table in primary and
we had a lot of FUN!
