The Church has produced some really high quality and very moving videos.  Some are based on stories from Church leaders, others are on a topic relevant to young people.  My kids love watching these, and I bet many Primary classes would enjoy them as well.  

Here are a few, below.  Enjoy!

February and March: what to expect when you're expecting (to teach your Primary class)

Knowing what behavior is developmentally appropriate and how much, for example reverence, you can expect from a 5 year old can be tricky.  This is especially true when you aren't a parent yourself, or you're teaching an age group you haven't parented yet (or haven't in the past 15 years!). The Church has some good resources to help understand what kids are like at different ages in terms of attention span, impulse control, etc.  Check out the links below.

Here's a lovely video from Sunday School General Board member Ann Madsen about the impact teachers can have on the children they teach:






Thank you for all the effort, dedication and love you bring to your classes each week!
