Perfecting the Saints — One Lesson at a Time
Downloaded from: http://aprimarysingingtime.blogspot.com/2013/06/ribbon-wands.html I hopped onto the rainbow ribbon bandwagon for teaching “When I am Baptized” with Jr. Primary. Mine are made from Popsicle sticks and curling ribbon from The Dollar Tree (as well as a dab of hot glue). Of course, they don’t have ALL the colors of the rainbow . . . but I think they will be fun anyway. Jr. Primary has struggled lately and I…

I did this a couple years ago and the children LOVED it. You will need 6-8 plastic leaping frogs…I bought mine at the dollar store but I have also seen larger ones at JoAnn’s. Number each frog. Place a start line with tape on the floor. Begin by asking the children what gift we are given when we are…

Life in the month of May was a little crazy around here…I am sure many of you can relate! But now summer is upon us & I welcome the slower pace that accompanies it. I am sure most of you have already made a visual for “When I Am Baptized”, but I thought I would still share mine.
Downloaded from: http://primarynotes29.blogspot.com/2013/06/2013-rainbow-review.html The June 2013 song of the month is When I Am Baptized (CS 103). Since they learned the song last year and basically already know it our Second Sunday in June will be a review of the 2013 Primary Songs. A Rainbow Review! I am going to use the magic color cups to help determine which song to sing. My rainbow-zed list of 2013 songs we’ve learned…

I “faux laminated” them and the tape is ‘slick’ on the front. Beforehand I tested out really waxy crayons to make sure they’d wipe off (they did, whew).* Here’s how the lesson goes: After teaching When I…

Downloaded from: http://primarynotes29.blogspot.com/2013/06/singing-testimonies.html Have the children bear their testimonies through song. Hand out hymn books and children’s songbooks. Start with your song first, then let the children choose a song that represents their own testimony. Simple, not much prep, spiritual.

Write on one “being baptized and confirmed” and on the other “and keeping my baptismal covenants.” Prepare several smaller footsteps in both colors. Write one of the following on each footstep of the first color: 8 years old, repent, interview with the bishop, immersion, priesthood authority, covenant, white clothing, Holy Ghost….

Sr. Primary complained when it was time for sharing time that they hadn’t gotten to hear all of them. I definitely recommend using true stories!!! I really want to talk about repentance in a way that the kids will remember. Along those lines, I am copying an idea I found on SugarDoodle HERE, called “What are those Spots?!?”. Now,…

I do not like being up in front of people. I do not like singing in front of people – not even in my own house. Every Sunday morning I am sick to my…

Downloaded from: http://aprimarysingingtime.blogspot.com/2013/05/hide-magnet.html Today, with a rowdy, holiday-weekend Jr. Primary, I decided at the last minute to do the good ol’ hide-the-magnet game instead of my planned activity. They LOVED it – Jr. and Sr. both – they sang great and participate the whole time! It’s a game they played often with the previous chorister. Basic idea – you pick two children. One goes out into the hall while the…

Downloaded from: http://primarynotes29.blogspot.com/2013/05/rainbow-lyrics-for-when-i-am-baptized.html I am going to make a visual aide where each “bow” of the rainbow has lyrics on it. I will hide “bows” around the room. The children will find them and then we’ll assemble the whole rainbow on the board. Then we’ll do a lyric take-away to sing the song over and over again. I’ll post a picture when I’m done making my rainbow. I rainbow-color-coded the lyrics…
