CTR Bear Spotlight

We just started a new spotlight in our Junior Primary. Each week one child will get to be in charge of the CTR bear for our Primary. They can take him home and be in charge of him all week.



Along with the bear will come a sheet where they answer some questions that we will read to learn about them at the end of the week.

This week our spotlight was Sailor. She is 5 years old and her favorite person in the scriptures is Jesus. She likes to play dolls, play with her brothers and friends form church, and draw! Her favorite primary song is "I am a Child of God."
A time during the week when she got to choose the right was when instead of fighting with her little brother she chose to stop and work it out.
She took the CTR bear with her to the stake Pioneer Day Activity.
Next week we look forward to learning more about Turtle Leach.

Valiant ME Bag

Last Sunday our Valiant spotlight was Allie. She brought this cute picture of her as a baby.
She also brought a swimming trophy she got this year for most improved, a stuffed giraffe from Disneyland, and one of her favorite books. It's called "Mud Pie Annie" and was illustrated by one of her mother's friends.
The bag went to John Anderson to bring back next week.

Come, Follow Me

We sang "Come, Follow Me" for the closing song in primary today. The kids are really getting good at the sign language (and so are the teachers).

Thanks to Allie and Crystal for their great talk and scripture today in Primary.

Pioneer Sharing Time

Sister Woodbury taught us about pioneers for sharing time last week. She told the kids that the next time they are bored, they should just go outside and play with rocks and sticks, because those are some of the only toys the pioneers had. She also brought a corn husk and told how they would make dolls out of them. A few minutes later our CTR 6 teacher Suezanne Teel had taken the corn husk and made this really cute doll. There are so many hidden talents in Primary!

Pioneer Singing Time

Last Sunday Sister Brady brought props and costumes to help us learn a Primary Song about Pioneers. We'll finish working on it next week. Happy Pioneer Day!

Little Pioneer Children
Children's Songbook p. 216

Little pioneer children gath'ring berries for food
See the pioneer children hunting chips for wood.
Gladly helping each other, merry and happy were they,
Walking along, moving along, on their way.

Hear the pioneer children singing all the day.
See the pioneer children, there's still time for play.
Often singing and dancing, merry and happy were they,
walking along, moving along, on their way.
