Stand for the Right

"Stand for the Right" is the song for March as outlined in the Primary Sacrament Program for 2011.  This is one of the easiest songs to teach and perfect for the upcoming General Conference in April.  Use a picture of Pres. Monson.  If possible find pictures of other prophets both latter day and ancient.  Explain to the children that prophets have all told us to "be true."  We need to "be true at work, at play, in darkness or light and always stand for the right."  Choose actions for "work," "play," "darkness" and "light."  You can also find a picture of each of these words -- a child working, playing, nighttime and daytime.  The "CTR" shield is perfect for the words "be true."  Cut out a shield and write "be true" on it.  Each time you sing "be true" hold up the shield.  The last phrase, "stand for the right," stand like a soldier.  The children will enjoy doing the same actions as you, while they are learning the song.  Be sure to sing the song at least 5 times.
