Week 4

Monday Conference talk:
Be Not Troubled ~ Ronald A. Rasband


Enrichment activities inspired by talk (do these throughout the week):

• Learn about extreme weather (waves and winds on the Sea of Galilee). We watched You Tube videos about hurricanes and strong storms. 
• Sea of Galilee research and map craft. Grab a map of the Sea of Galilee here. Print it out. Have kids trace it on trace paper and label main cities and landmarks. Then they can use the original map to make a small boat. Like this one:
  
• Vocabulary Page, get it here. Have them choose 15 words and fill out this worksheet, here. You should be able to make a copy and then edit it. Use the Explore button under the tools tab to insert images and look up definitions.
• Make a MormonAd inspired by this quote "The battles will rage on, but we will face them with the Spirit of the Lord. We will “be not troubled” because when we stand with the Lord and stand for His principles and His eternal plan, we are standing on holy ground." Here is one my daughter made:
  
• Here's another worksheet they can do comparing the attributes of fear to those of faith. There is also a place for them to write a haiku about dispelling fear. Here's my daughter's for example: 

                    When fear overcomes

                    I sing a primary song

                    The fear is now gone

• I found these AMAZING blank geography pages! We'll probably use them from now on each time learn about a new location. Get your free download here at 1+1+1=1. We learned about Syria and my kids even decided to write some of the information in Arabic!
