The Lesson - What opportunities are there for learning and teaching in the home? - What I Did

Well, I can't see that I did any introductory stuff for this lesson.  I just started with the video clip, giving this sheety to my kids to fill in while they watched:


A Heaven-Inspired Program

Directions:  As you watch the video clip with President Monson, fill in the two lists below.


Dangers We Can Be Protected From                       Strengths that Can Come from

by Studying the Gospel as Families                          Studying the Gospel as Families


Then we discussed the worksheet, of course.  We always discuss, unless some of the stuff is private stuff for them to stick in their scriptures or journals or whatever.  But I always tell them on their sheeties if they'll need to share or not.  Then we did the following worksheet for the L.Tom Perry part.  I split his talk up and gave each kid a different worksheet:
Becoming Goodly Parents

Directions:  Read the following suggestion (From Elder Perry's talk from October 2012) for creating a stronger family culture.  After you read the suggestion, answer the questions that follow it.

“Parents can pray in earnest, asking our Eternal Father to help them love, understand, and guide the children He has sent to them.”

If you can think of one, share an example you have seen of a family following the suggestion.




What can you do now to prepare to follow this suggestion when you become a parent?

“Families can hold family prayer, scripture study, and family home evenings and eat together as often as possible, making dinner a time of communication and the teaching of values.”

Share an example you have seen of a family following the suggestion.




2.  What can you do now to prepare to follow this suggestion when you become a parent?

Directions:  Read the following suggestion (From Elder Perry's talk from October 2012) for creating a stronger family culture.  After you read the suggestion, answer the questions that follow it.

“Parents can fully avail themselves of the Church’s support network, communicating with their children’s Primary teachers, youth leaders, and class and quorum presidencies. By communicating with those who are called and set apart to work with their children, parents can provide essential understanding of a child’s special and specific needs. “

1.  Share an example you have seen of a family following the suggestion.



2.  What can you do now to prepare to follow this suggestion when you become a parent?

Becoming Goodly Parents

Directions:  Read the following suggestion (From Elder Perry's talk from October 2012) for creating a stronger family culture.  After you read the suggestion, answer the questions that follow it.

“We can organize our families based on clear, simple family rules and expectations, wholesome family traditions and rituals, and “family economics,” where children have household responsibilities and can earn allowances so that they can learn to budget, save, and pay tithing on the money they earn.”

1.  Share an example you have seen of a family following the suggestion.

Then we did the Proclamation on the Family activity.  I gave each kid a copy of the 7th paragraph of the Proclamation:

The family is ordained of God. Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. By divine design, fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners. Disability, death, or other circumstances may necessitate individual adaptation. Extended families should lend support when needed.
                 The Family:  A Proclamation to the World

Then I did the Recreational Activities Part like so:


Wholesome Recreational Activities

1.  What recreational activities do you enjoy participating in with your families?



2.  What gospel truths or principles have you learned as you have taken part in these activities?

And then we shared our answers to this part.  [I put the picture of a boat at sunset, because I grew up on a boat - those were some of the best times of my life. :)]
