The lesson was about making good choices, so we started out by choosing from a selection of differently-patterned pencils. We reviewed Heavenly Father's plan for us and that Satan wanted to force us to do the right thing. Everyone agreed that a life without choices would be really boring and no fun at all. We learned that
agency
is a big word for the ability to make our own choices. The children already knew that making good choices leads to happiness, so much of the lesson material and activities were review.
We learned from Matthew 21:14-16 about a time when Jesus was in the temple. The children enjoyed learning that Jesus had a temple just like we do, but they were very surprised that the high priests disliked him so much. We talked about following Jesus and praising him just like the children in the Bible did.
We sang what has become our class song, Choose the Right Way, then learned another one, Listen, Listen. We talked about how the Holy Ghost helps us to make good choices.
Our coloring sheet was a page full of hearts, just because you can never color too many hearts, especially in February! It is always fun to see the children's creativity and how many different ways they come up with to color the same picture.
