Picture Review

I was recently asked if I do something different every week in Primary singing time.  Absolutely not!  I have several activities for each holiday, many, many review activities and I definitely use ideas over again, especially the ones the children love.  "Singo" is a favorite as is any matching activity. 

This week I am gathering one or two pictures that I used to teach all the songs so far for the program (a picture per song or verse).  I will put them on the board and ask a child to choose a picture and tell what song it belongs to.  We will then sing it.  I try to choose pictures that don't totally give the song away so the children have to think a little.

Picture Review

Here is a list of the songs for the 2013 Primary Sacrament Meeting Program.  Two of them were your choice so you may not be using the two listed below.  There are 6 songs to review.

Make a word strip of each song title, fold it and put it in a basket, paper bag or jar.  Find one picture to represent each song.  I've put a suggestion after each song below.  Ask a child to draw a paper from the jar and read the title.  Then ask the children to match the title to the picture.  Sing the song.  (Sing it twice if it needs a little more review.)
