Our primary president showed us some Article of Faith hand signs to help the kids remember them based on the number. Here they are, I thought they were pretty clever and helpful:
1st - 1 finger
pointing up to God
2nd - 2 fingers
for Adam & Eve
3rd - 3 fingers
for 3 syllables of "A-tone-ment"
4th - 4 fingers
for 4 steps of principles & ordinances
5th - Hand
with 5 fingers, place on head like an ordination
6th - 5
fingers wrap around 1 pointer finger (steeple) on other hand and it looks
like a church
7th - 5 fingers
form a "mouth", 2 fingers are the "tongue" sticking out
8th - 5
fingers held out like a book page and 3 fingers scroll across the hand
(page) like you are reading
9th - Show
9 fingers but hide the thumb, because it hasn't been 'revealed'
10th -10
fingers for "ten" and again for "tribes"
11th -Two
hands flat and facing each other make the 11, then put them together like you
are praying/worshipping
12th - 2 hands
make a crown
13th - 5
fingers for honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, then a thumbs up for
doing good
