December 2016 Song:  Your Choice

December Week 2 Topic: Jesus Christ was born.


Preparation:

Prayerfully study and think about what the specific needs of your primary are and how you can teach them this doctrine.


Sharing Time Instruction:


For Sharing Time, show the primary children the week's theme poster and explain that this week the topic that they will be learning about it, "Jesus Christ was born".  Play the movie, "The Nativity". To play the movie you click the link and then download it to your laptop or you could download it onto a tablet too. Then you can hook it into a TV if you'd like or just play it from your device.

If you do not have access to play the movie, you could print off these pictures and tell the nativity story with the pictures.

After the movie, invite the primary children to share with you how they focus on the birth of the Savior at Christmas time. Share with the children your testimony of the significance of the Savior's birth.

If time allows invite the primary children to color a nativity picture. Encourage them to take the pictures home and talk about the Savior's birth with their families. Here are some ideas (if there is an image click on it to be directed to where to download and print it):
