To help my students learn about the 12 Apostles of Jesus, I created a mini accordion book. On each page, they glued the picture and name of each apostle until we had all 12 included. We gave some facts about each Apostle and then listened to a cute song to help with learning the names. ... Read More about Learning about the 12 Apostles

Last month I was looking for a getting to know you game that I could do with a large group of women for Relief Society. After searching for something we could play I came up with my own game. It is called: It is a spin off of the "This or That" game. Here is how it works: We started by having everyone stand on whatever side of the line they wanted. Then I asked everyone to “switch sides if” the statement applied to them. After some of the statements they were asked to tell someone next to them a little more about themselves. I wasn’t sure if the game would go well, but it ended up being a lot of fun and got everyone talking. It was really neat to see who switched sides on some of the statements and who had the same things in common with each other and with you. Here are some of the statements: You like to cook You prefer summer more than winter You have been on a mission… if you switched sides tell someone where You have 4 or more kids You prefer dogs more than cats You were born in (the state you live)…if you didn’t switch sides tell someone where You like to sew You have any grandchildren… if you switched sides tell someone how many You prefer spring more than fall You have ridden a horse You have lived in another state…if you switched sides tell someone where You prefer pie more than cake You have 4 or more siblings You have a pet… if you switched sides tell someone what pet you have and it’s name You prefer morning more than night You were named after someone…if you switched sides tell someone who You like to sing You have participated in a race (like a 5K or marathon) You speak another language…if you switched sides tell someone what languages you speak You prefer mountains more than beach You prefer books more than movies Play an instrument…if you switched sides tell someone what instrument you play You like to play sports or have played on any teams You prefer dark chocolate more than white Chocolate You have traveled out of the country…if you switched sides tell someone where You prefer washing dishes more than doing laundry There are many other things you could add to this list to fit your "getting to know you" group.
