How to Make a Clay Olive Oil Lamp – Late Roman Style

The Prayer Bucket
A veteran Seminary teacher told me about this method of choosing prayers for class that helps avoid having the same few kids volunteer to pray each day. I have used a similar method in Young Womens classes, too, and it works beautifully. You’ll need : a wooden Popsicle-style craft stick for every person in your class (plus some extras in…
The Importance of Following Directions
Then to give a break from the reading (and to rouse the sleepy-headed students), I passed out a “3-Minute Test.” This was a quick little quiz to test “obedience” and precision to directions.

Going to the Temple Game
It’s sometimes difficult to hold the attention of our Sunbeams for the length of the class time. We have found that games of any kind keep them engaged and help them learn. We have used several board games from the Friend Magazine. The part that the kids like best are the game pieces. Take a small flat object, like a…
