Teaching Thoughts
These are a few bonus thoughts- keep scrolling for more!
Match the Priesthood duties to the office with the free handouts in my Primary 5 Lesson 8 handouts.
Hide glow sticks around the room with the priesthood blessing cards found in this lesson help. As people find them, have they read the card and a little bit about the card. Glow sticks are tons of fun... just keep them out of people's mouths.
Divide the Red Sea yourself! Bring in blue balloons and set them in at least 2 rows on the floor. Have one student pretend to be Moses. You can bring in a broom stick for his rod and use it to divide the balloons so everyone can walk on "dry ground."
Use the scripture cards included in The Red Headed Hostess class packet to better understand the story.
