Lesson 2

 Heavenly Father Has a Plan for Me

*Remember you were called as teachers not babysitters. Plan your lessons prayerfully so that the children will be able to feel the spirit through the chaos that nursery can be while they are in your class.

A Little Something For You:

This week's lesson gives us a chance to think about Heavenly Father's wonderful plan for us. His Plan of Happiness. To help get the spirit in your lesson planning here is a message from Elder L. Tom Perry October 2006 General Conference address The Plan of Salvation.

As always follow the nursery manual for you lesson planning, here are just a few additional resources that you can use in your class.


Lesson Helps and Ideas:

Have the children draw pictures of their family, their homes, or anything they love and emphasize that these are things that Heavenly Father gave to them.

Go on a walk outside or look out the window during free time and talk about all the beautiful things that Heavenly Father created for them.

While the children are coloring talk about each picture and relate it back to the lesson.

To reinforce last week's lesson and bring the two lessons together bring a mirror and let them look in it as they say "I am a Child of God."


*Sister Ipson won't be here the next two weeks so music will be up to you so just follow what she did last week with music that should work great!

Lesson Schedule 8/24-11/16

Here is an updated lesson schedule. We are working on getting a couple to rotate through the classes to give all you teachers a chance to attend the adult classes once a month. Until then let me know if you need a break for the week. And as always let me know if you are going to be gone so we can make sure your class is covered.
