Family Tree

This week we are focusing on 1 Nephi 5 for our Scripture Study. I have an brilliant friend who suggested this craft too me to help the children understand what descendants are. We made a family tree! We talked about family history, descendants, generations, ancestors and our family name. We listened to a couple of talks: https://www.lds.org/ensign/2003/08/one-family & https://www.lds.org/new-era/2009/02/the-value-of-a-good-name Then we went to work on our family tree. As sad as the little tree looks because of inexperience it was fun. Here is the link to this craft if you want to try it for yourself. http://pikadillycharm.blogspot.com/2011/11/paper-bag-fall-tree.html?m=1

Tomorrow we will learn more about the plates of brass. :o)
