New Era Lesson! ~ Feb 2019 ~ MTC

The New Era this month has a missionary theme! We read the article, Your MTC Experience. Did you know there are 12 Missionary Training Centers around the World?!! We made MTC sticky notes and added them to our wall map. Loved it!

Week 11 ~ The Correct Name of the Church ~ President Russell M. Nelson

Monday Conference Talk:

The Correct Name of the Church by Pres. Russell M. Nelson

Enrichment ideas inspired by this talk:

• Vocabulary page and worksheet. Get it HERE!
• Have a study discussion of the Middle Ages (Dark Ages). We had some cool books that we looked through. Then we each chose a different historical figure from that time and filled out a biography page about that person. Also, got a few books from the library that the kids could read, Adam of the Road, Robin Hood, and Chaucer. 
• Have a lesson on product branding. The kids each thought of several businesses that have effective branding. They copied their logos and slogans. Then they had to come up with their own product or service and make a logo and slogan for it. The kids loved this activity!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Learn to sing, play, or lead the Hymn, Joseph Smith's First Prayer.
• Discuss why names are important and where their family names come from. 

New Era Lesson ~ February 2019

Read An Ensign to the Nations and discuss. One of my kids mentioned Captain Moroni and his title of Liberty.
 

• Make your own Ensign! We all got a laugh out of this one that L made, she added her head to classic images of children with Christ:
