1 Lead Student Lesson Plan L06: 2 Nephi 9-16 Main Purposes Learn a study skill and decide how to use it to better understand the scriptures. Learn from and teach others gospel principles found in the Book of Mormon through a selected directed study activity. Take deliberate action to develop Christ-like attributes. Student Preparation Students were asked to prepare for gathering by completing specific activities and/or pondering certain questions. Please refer to the gathering instructions in this week s unit or lesson in the course. Lesson Outline As the Lead Student this week you will facilitate the Thursday Gathering. The times given for each activity are suggested times. The Gathering should not last more than 60 minutes. Try to make sure that the main purposes of the gathering are met each week. OPENING LED BY MISSIONARIES Announcements, Announcements Hymn, and Prayer Opening Hymn: Chosen by missionaries (10 minutes) Opening Prayer: By Invitation CLASS ACTIVITIES LED BY LEAD STUDENT Review and Lead Student to Class Introduction Follow-up from previous week: Begin with asking the following (10 minutes) question: Is there anyone who would like to share their successes or challenges in applying principles/concepts discussed during last week's gathering? Discuss this week's content: Next, share with the group what you learned this week as you studied and pondered the week's reading 1
2 assignment in the scriptures and/or how you applied principles and concepts from the previous week. Ask questions: Prepare a few thoughtful questions which will encourage students to share new insights and thoughts that they gained through their scripture study this week. Break up into pairs if desired and then share with the larger group. *HINT*: Consider questions that are open-ended and allow classmates to make connections and to provide support to their answers, etc. Using "what, when, why, or how" questions are great ways to begin. Study Skills Whole Class (10 minutes) Purpose: (Study Skills) The purpose of "doing" leads us to "becoming" the person we can be and the one Heavenly Father needs us to be. Make sure that you create meaningful examples of application in studying the scriptures. Everything in this course is designed to help you and your classmates become strong disciples of the Savior through thoughtful and engaged scripture study. Choose one of the nine study skills listed in the Book of Mormon Study Skills document that has yet to be presented. If all have been presented, then you should choose one that you would like to review. During gathering, take up to 10 minutes to provide a short demonstration on how to personally apply the study skill as well as presenting a reason as to why/how this skill can deepen one's understanding of the scriptures. You can include the audio explanation/example. Be creative! Invite others to share their experiences and examples too. Come up with a few questions to have people share their own experience in using the study skill presented that evening. Remember that you should only spend a total of 10 minutes on this activity so use your time wisely. Encourage the students to practice the items that will be discussed in the gathering this week and to come next week ready to discuss the new insights that they gained. Study Skills Example: Choose a few scriptures that you read this week in which you substituted your name within the scriptures. Read a few of them aloud and ask everyone else to substitute their own name in the appropriate places etc. 2
3 Directed Study Activity (25 minutes) Small Groups For the activity below, the class will be divided into small groups of 6-8. Encourage students not to sit with the same people each week. The lead student and missionaries should walk around and listen to the discussions, giving input as needed. Purpose: (Directed Study) The prepared directed study activities help you to dig deeper in applying and demonstrating learned concepts and principles that are found in the week's scripture readings. Encourage everyone to seek the guidance of the Holy Ghost as they work in groups to complete a selected Directed Study activity found at the end of this lesson plan Lead Student: Review the Directed Study activity at the end of this document. Print copies to bring to the gathering. Or you could have the students pull up this week s lesson plan on their computers and scroll down to the directed study when it s time. Divide the large group into smaller groups so that they can select the Directed Study option that they wish to complete as a group. Remind each group that they will need to choose an option quickly so that they can complete it within 20 minutes. Remind each group that everyone is to have a responsibility in completing the activity. Group members can decide how to divide up the completion of their selected activity, as long as everyone is involved. For the next 20 minutes, groups will work together to complete their selected Directed Study activity. Once completed, it is important to note that even though groups work together to complete the activity, each member of the group will need to report the completion of the assignment separately to the online instructor through the Gathering Attendance Report in I- Learn. They can include the same information as other group members, as well as providing some personal insight to describe the overall learning experience. Once the 20 minutes has passed, reconvene together as a class and briefly review what everyone discussed. Possible questions to help you wrap up the experience: o How can/does this activity apply to you personally? o How can the outlined activity better help you to study the scriptures? o How do you plan to apply learned concepts and principles in the upcoming weeks? o How does this activity prepare you for becoming a better disciple of Jesus Christ? 3
4 o If you could teach someone else this week one of the principles learned through the outlined activity you chose, what would you share and why? Reflection and Call Lead Student to Class to Action Share your testimony of what you have learned through this activity. (5 minutes) Invite everyone to reflect upon what they have learned this evening and consider the following questions: How does their learning this evening affect the person they want to become? What action item are they going to perform as a result of the learning this week? Remind the class to report their attendance in their Learning Report in I-Learn and invite them to share their learning in their "Post-Gathering Discussion Board" in I-Learn. CLOSING Prayer LED BY MISSIONARIES Closing Prayer: By Invitation Remind students that if they would like to continue the conversation with their classmates in the online class, they can visit the "On-Going Gathering Discussion Board" as a way to share with their classmates the new insights they gained from attending the gathering. This is not required or graded. Remember: You need to be able to contact each other and stay organized. Use the method that works best for your gathering group (texts, , Facebook, etc.). Note Please download and print a copy of these instructions to use as a reference during Thursday's Pathway Gathering. 4
5 Lesson 06 - Directed Study Focus on particular passages of scripture by selecting an option from those listed below. Complete the related questions and/or activities Option 1: 2 Nephi 9:4 27. O the Greatness...of Our God! Jacob used declarative statements in 2 Nephi 9:17 & 19 to give emphasis and organization to his discourse. For the verses from 2 Nephi 9 listed below, write doctrinal truths related to the Atonement of Jesus Christ that show the greatness of God. Verses 4 9 Verse 10 Verse 13 Verse 17 Verse 19 Verse 20 Option 2: 2 Nephi 9: The Contrast between the Evil One, and the Holy One of Israel Part A: Read the corresponding verses in 2 Nephi 9 and list the points Jacob taught under each topic in two columns as you see below: That Which Subjects Us to the Devil (vv ) That Which Brings Us to Christ (vv ) Part B: Contrast the information in both lists and write a paragraph explaining what you have learned about the differences between Satan and the Savior. 5
6 Part C: Write another paragraph describing what you will do to avoid the temptations of Satan and to take advantage of the blessings of the Atonement. Option 3: 2 Nephi 10:1 17. The Lord Fulfills His Covenants Part A: After reading 2 Nephi 10:1 17, complete the following sentences: Christ should come among the Jews there is none other nation on earth that would. Because of priestcrafts and iniquities, they at Jerusalem will. They shall be gathered in from their long dispersion, from; and the. The kings of the Gentiles shall be. This land shall be. I will fortify this. They who are not for me. I will fulfill my promises. Part B: Write a paragraph describing what these covenants mean to you today and identify your responsibilities. Option 4: 2 Nephi 11. Witnesses Read 2 Nephi 11, consider and write, in a few paragraphs, on the following items: Which three individuals identified in this chapter saw their Redeemer? Consider other scriptural accounts and events of the Restoration and list three other witnesses that have also seen Him in vision. Read 1 Corinthians 13:1 and explain the principle taught. How does Nephi support this principle in his writings? In what different ways has God [sent] more witnesses to prove all his words? (verse 3). What witnesses have you received to support the truths of the gospel? Option 5: 2 Nephi Being Prepared for Christ s Coming Part A: Isaiah s writings are sometimes difficult to understand. Study 2 Nephi 25:1, 3, and 6 7. From each of these verses discover a key given by Nephi to understand Isaiah and discuss, in writing, how the key can help you. Part B: Search 2 Nephi and seek for signs and events having to do with the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. List them. Discuss, in writing, which behaviors spoken of by Isaiah 6
7 would keep you from being prepared for His Second Coming or from coming unto Him today and why. Option 6: Points to Ponder Answer, in writing, the following questions by writing a response of a few sentences for each: In what ways can you help in the gathering of the Lord s people? Why is it important to realize that Jesus Christ s atoning sacrifice applies to you as an individual? What can you do to deepen your understanding of the Lord s Atonement? How can you know if your life is pleasing to the Lord? Why do you think the Atonement needed to be infinite? Option 7: Points to Ponder Answer, in writing, the following questions by writing a short paragraph of response: If the great work of the latter days is setting up an ensign to the nations and bringing the gospel to the world (see 2 Nephi 15:26), how can you best fulfill your role as a Latter-day Saint? 7
