Camille's Primary Ideas: The Restoration Review Weeks 1 & 2

This primary program review activity looks completely different than anything I’ve ever done!  I’m really excited to finally be sharing it with you!

The concept is simple.  But I’m hopeful that with its simplicity, the importance of the restoration will easily be conveyed to your primary.

Review Activity

This review activity covers 4-5 weeks and will help you review for your upcoming primary program.  But it can also be condensed as needed.  Review any songs each week.  Pick different songs to work on or review the same songs each week.

Place “The Restoration Review” page on the center of the board.  Place the various weekly pages around this page, gradually adding on each week.

Week 1 Joseph Studying

Post the pages for “Joseph Studied the Words” on the board.  Read the instructions to the primary.

Week 1 Activity

Once the pages are on the board, move into the activity that goes along with “Joseph Studied the Words.”

Senior: Create word scramble envelopes to each primary song to review – cut up the words to the song and place in envelopes.  Pass one song envelope (or 2, several, etc.) out to a group/class to work on.  Then sing each song to see if they get their song correct.

To create word scrambles, I suggest cutting up my posting words documents HERE to the songs you need (these are also in my Resource Library to download).  Then place in envelopes.

Junior: Listen to the words and raise your “studying Joseph stick” when you hear the keywords in each song:

  • Joseph Smith’s First Prayer – morning, sun, bees, birds, grove
  • The Priesthood is Restored – restored, men, earth, again
  • Reverence is Love –  reverence, sitting, thinking, feeling, reverent, words, deeds, heart
  • When He Comes Again – wonder, angels, earth, snow, spring, star, nest
  • Jesus Said Love Everyone – love, heart
  • Have I Done Any Good? – have, wake up, good, joy, blessing, duty, love
Create “studying Joseph sticks” by printing the following document, cutting them out and taping to a craft stick:

Week 2 The First Vision

Post the pages from the previous week (optional) then add the pages for The First Vision.  Read the instructions to the primary.

Week 2 Activity

During the songs use sitting, standing, kneeling, lying down cards to provide movement as needed.  These movement cards will enhance this week’s activity by providing additional movement:

Cut them in half to flip through the various movements as you sing.  To provide even more movement, I suggest my Position Cards (aka Primary Yoga) HERE.
