Family Home Evening Ideas that Teach the Proclamation
Sep 19, 2011
I am so excited for today’s blog hop!
We would LOVE to hear from you all of your ideas on how to teach the Proclamation during Family Home Evening.
If you don’t have a blog… PLEASE leave a comment below with your wonderful ideas!

Here is my idea to throw into the mix.
This idea I have shared before using scriptures from Joseph Smith History… but this time, it is for the Proclamation.
Here I took the proclamation from lds.org and copied and pasted it onto a simple word document.
Then, I put at least a double space between each line and then printed it off, and cut each line up.
Then give individual, or pairs, in your family a set with all of the cut up lines and see if they can put it in the right order.
The good thing about this activity is that they must really digest each line in order to try and figure out what comes next.
They may notice things they have never noticed by just reading through it.
OK… there is my idea!
Can’t wait to hear yours!

Wonderful idea! This is something I used regularly when teaching seminary years ago, but I had forgotten about using it for family night. Thanks for the reminder.
I love this method of teaching! We use it for learning songs and the Articles of Faith. I hadn’t thought of using the Proclamation this way though. Thanks!
That is such a great idea. I think that may be tonights FHE!
