"The Lord Gave Me a Temple" Review

Review time!  Color and cut out the circles in this pdf. (click here to download pictures)  You can enlarge them if you choose.  I like them to be as big as an 8" square so the children can see it.  I also color them with bright colors so they are easy to see.  Laminate them if you want to use them again (I always do).

Tell the children that we are going to review The Lord Gave Me a Temple.  On word strips no longer than 8 inches write the following words:

• The Lord gave  (1st verse, 1st phrase)
• If I keep  (2nd verse 1st phrase)
• Once in Heaven  (1st verse 2nd phrase)
• temple brighter - spirit free   (1st verse 3rd phrase)
• gave to me  (1st verse 4th phrase)
• clean and pure (2nd verse 2st phrase)
• claim blessings  (2nd verse 2nd phrase)
• resurrection  (2nd verse 3rd phrase
• body bright  (2nd verse 4th phrase)

Each set of words comes from one of the phrases in the song.  Place each set of words on the board.  Using the pictures used in teaching the second verse (3 pictures) and the 5 pictures below, cover the words with the pictures.  Ask a child to chose a picture and read the words behind it.  See if they can tell what verse and phrase it is.  If they can't, sing the song until you sing the words that have just been uncovered.  Ask the children to raise their hand as soon as they sing the words.

Alternate activity:

Write the last word of each phrase on strips of paper.  (They are the rhyming words)  Tape the strips on the board in jumbled order.  Sing the song and put the words in order.  Sing the song as many times as you need to get the words in order.
