Order the Words

A great review activity for any song/songs is "find the word" and put them in order that they are sung.

Here are two examples:
I'm Trying to Be Like Jesus:

• trying
• following
• say
• tempted
• choice
• whispers
• learning
• gladness
• lessons
• gentle

When I Am Baptized

• rainbows
• ponder
• beauty
• earth
• baptized
• washed
• forgiven
• improve
• rain
• best

Make word strips of each word and tape them to the board jumbled up.  Sing the song. Ask two children to place two words (or more as time permits) in the order that they are sung in the song.  Sing the song again and follow the same procedure until all the words are in order.

A more difficult activity is to use words from two songs. Sing them both and have children take turns sorting and putting the words in order.  It's especially fun if you give them 30 seconds to see how many they can sort and/or put in order.
