In 2 Nephi 6-10, Jacob is reading the words of Isaiah. Study these chapters before hand to better understand the verses and to teach what the spirit prompts you to. We hear the word harken a lot in these verses. Explain that harken means listen and give some real life examples. You can also count how many times you hear harken as you read.
Complete the activity To be learned is to be good. Put the books in the backpack as you read the verses.
Next, read 2 Nephi 9:45 and do the shake off the chains activity. Consider doing the Hokey Pokey to shake off the chains, representing the natural man.
End the lesson singing The Wise Man and the Foolish Man. Build a tower of blocks that stand on a solid foundation and one that stands on sand (brown sugar also works really well). Pour water over the towers and watch them stand or fall.
One of the bonus ideas this week is to sing I Feel My Savior’s Love while doing the coloring page.
Another fun bonus activity is to create the hinges child craft. As you do this craft talk about lifting our heads and rejoicing in Christ.

By the time the Israelites had their third king, the nation split into two groups: the 10 tribes in the north, forming the Kingdom of Israel, and the remaining two tribes in the south, forming the Kingdom of Judah. The Lord called a mighty prophet, Elijah, to remind His people of their true King: Jehovah (Jesus Christ). Elijah testified to the people that their idol worship was taking them farther away from God.
Going from tabernacle to temple was a big deal for the Israelites. So big, in fact, that even those building the temple had to be worthy of the task. David’s sin in his lust for Bathsheba disqualified him to build the Lord’s house, resulting in his son Solomon completing it. For building the temple with a pure heart, the Lord promised Solomon that so long as he kept the commandments, “I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people” (1 Kings 6:13).
The story of David versus Goliath teaches many important principles, with one being that if we try our best and have real faith in God, He will help us make the most of our efforts. Though an army was present and he was offered the king’s armor, David brought his sling and his belief that the Lord would prevail through him. It was enough: “the Lord saveth not with sword and spear” (1 Samuel 17:47) but with trust and hope.
