Activities That Inspire Young Women, vol. 2

This activity leader's guide offers fourteen innovative learning projects that can be effectively used and enjoyed in the LDS Young Women program. The creative ideas presented will be of great value to all who lead, teach and serve. This is an idea book - a source which leaders can use as is or readily adapt to the specific needs of the girls they teach. Projects in this volume are both fun and spiritually rewarding. They include faith-centered activities that identify courageous kids who've made a difference in the community, a Christmas service project exemplifying the areas of good works, and a game night where each game has a parallel to the girls' personal responsibilities for choice and accountability. "You're an Original," which features the identification of unique personal characteristics, is a fun activity based on the theme of individual worth. A pressure cooker demonstration becomes the basis for meaningful insights in the knowledge category, while a gues speaker who focuses on the miracle of life for the "Glorious Creation - Starring You!" activity gives emphasis to the divine nature value. "The Still Small Voice" and "A Quality Worth Singing About" are the activities for teaching the integrity value. Every activity if fun, motivational and truly uplifting. Two lesson plans are provided for each of the seven Values, and each lesson plan includes a clear lesson obective, a list of materials needed to teach that objective, suggestion on preparing the lesson and making it unique, appropriate invitations for each class member, and a step-by-step outline of the class activity. Each lesson plan also suggests interesting post-project assignments for class members to help them remember the lesson's goal and incorporate it into their daily lives. The enjoyable projects in this book can truly stimulate a ward or stake Young Women's program, build the spiritual nature of every class member, and make planning and executing each activity a joy for the instructor. Activities That Inspire Young Women, Volume 2, continues and expands the exciting ides for Young Women leaders that first appeared in Activities That Build Young Women, Volumes 1 and 2, and Activities that Inspire Young Women, Volume 1.
