Change: Red Light Green Light


For family home evening we talked about how to monitor our rally cry which we came up with a couple of weeks ago: Through making daily scripture study fun, we improve family unity and develop patience and kindness. Tonight we decided to monitor two parts of it. Reading the scriptures daily and is the study fun(engaging and different). The monitoring will be simple using green to indicate that we met the expectations, yellow for almost but not all the way, red for didn't come close to the goal. This simple but effective measurement will be posted under the rally cry and we will evaluate it each week at FHE. The kids will help evaluate and put up the red green or yellow under the goal. The goal evaluation also includes personal scripture study so each person will keep track or the number of days read and the family will receive green yellow or red depending on the number of day scriptures are read in the week. this way each person is accountable to the group and helps to achieve the green light. We started reading the scriptures when we wrote the rally cry, 2 weeks ago and we have a green light yellow and a red. So we have work to do to improve. I'm confident that this will help us improve. We want only green lights!!!


As always after FHE you have to have a snack so we had a diet fudge ice cream bars!! You can see how much the kids enjoyed it.
