I've only been teaching primary for a little over a month but I am already
needing new ideas to keep those little bodies reverent!
I have had a lot of help from my mom and my mother in law who have been
around the block a few times when it comes to primary!
They have given me many ideas similar to this game which I have used and am grateful for but I decided
I wanted to make my own just for fun.
I saw a similar idea on pinterest.... yeah I know... :)
Anyway, her idea was a matching game where you matched the lowercase letter the cone, (or in my case the # of the article of faith)
to the upper case letter (the summarized version of the article of faith).
I thought it was super cute and adjusted it to fit primary.
I teach the 7 and 8 year olds in primary and felt that they are at the perfect
age to start familiarizing themselves with the Articles of Faith.
Although one day they would fully memorize all of the Articles of Faith,
for now I just wanted them to take away the basics of what we believe and why
these 13 beliefs are so important to what makes our church true.
With the help of Ty and my mom we came up with these summaries of each Article of Faith.
This is just one example and the rest are pretty similar.
I probably should have found a way to type the article of faith on the ice cream scoop
but my handwriting will have to do.
If you would like to make your own, click HERE to view the PDF I made. I just printed it off, cut it out, and used it as a stencil on my scrapbook paper that I wanted to use.
I had fun making it and maybe one day, when I have been around the primary block a few times, I can give it to my daughter or daughter in law to use :)
Not sure if that link works if you don't have a gmail account.. sorry!
ReplyDeleteThis is super cute! I may have to steal this idea sometime ;)
