Review "Praise to the Man"

Let's review Praise to the Man!  If you are teaching children that can read, use word strips that you defined in the previous post.

  • Place word strips in a mixed-up order on half of the board
  • Sing the first phrase
  • Have a child find the word or words that were sung in that phrase and place them in order on one side of the board
  • Sing the next phrase and do the same thing until you finish the verse
Chorus
  • Sing the chorus together
  • Have the boys sing the first phrase of the chorus
  • Girls sing the second
  • Teachers sing the third
  • Everyone sings the rest of the chorus together
Other ideas
  • everyone whose first name begins with A, J, L or M sing the 1st two phrases
  • everyone whose first name begins with B, Z, C, L, K sing the rest of the chorus
  • Everyone who is in 3rd or 5th grade sing . . .
  • Use several combinations
Non-Readers
  • Use several pictures of Joseph Smith that connect with the phrases
    • The First Vision
    • Joseph receiving the priesthood
    • Joseph being baptized
    • Joseph preaching
    • Joseph going to Carthage Jail
    • any other picture that will help children remember the words
  • Sing the hymn several times, first in short sections then all the way through
