“Sample Teaching Plan,” Come, Follow Me: Living, Learning, and Teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, for Primary (2017)
“Sample Teaching Plan,” Come, Follow Me for Primary
Sample Teaching Plan
Invite Sharing
For the first few minutes of class, invite the children to share their feelings and experiences about the principles in the lesson outline. Their comments may include experiences they’ve had learning at home. You might also review what they learned last week and ask how it has influenced their lives.
Teach the Doctrine
Come, Follow Me for individuals and families can help you understand the doctrine you will teach to the children. Consider what scripture verses, quotations, experiences, questions, and other resources you might share to help the children learn and act on gospel principles. Look for creative ways to help them be excited about what they are learning.
Encourage Learning at Home
Because the home is the center of gospel learning, one of your objectives as a Primary teacher is to encourage learning at home. How can you help the children share what they learned with their families? How can you encourage children and their parents to continue to learn about the Old Testament at home?
