For this week's teaching, I would like to bring a new resource to your attention (at least new to me!):
Found on lds.org, this page talks about Teaching with Symbols. Symbols are good to use because they can hold the attention of all ages and abilities. One of my favorite suggestions on this page is using symbols to post a nursery or sharing time schedule. One of my first experiences in primary gave my an opportunity to see a schedule in action. She would review the schedule at the beginning of each day, and she was consistent with bringing the children's attention to the progress through the schedule.
Giving children routines and expectations can give them peace. This can contribute to the reverence in your Primaries and open testimony-sharing opportunities.
I encourage you to review this page and discuss with your presidency if adding symbols or a schedule would enhance your Primary experiences.
