Your Primary will be ASTONISHED at how many actions they create simply with a folded piece of paper! Teach The Church of Jesus Christ in singing time using these paper actions!
I absolutely LOVE taking simple items into singing time and using them in a clever way! And this singing time lesson plan does just that!

Audrey shared these these paper actions on the PML Facebook group and I instantly fell in love with them! It’s SO clever and I absolutely LOVE a clever singing time lesson plan! Thanks for sharing, Audrey!
I Belong to the Church of Jesus Christ Printable
To teach these actions, everyone needs a small piece of paper. There’s nothing to print! I took a few sheets of neon colored card stock and just cut them into 4ths:
But regular white printer paper will do just the trick too! Or use note cards as they are the perfect size!
Like these (Amazon affiliate link):
Then simply fold them in half (hamburger style!) along the long side of the paper. You can also have your Primary kids fold their own.
I Belong to the Church of Jesus Christ Singing Time Idea
Turn the piece of paper in various directions to create these actions:
- Roof of church building: I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ
- L: Latter-day Saints
- Cover face: I know
- Show face (peek-a-boo): who I am
- Read a plan: I know God’s Plan
- Stairs: follow him in faith
- Read the scriptures: believe in the Savior
- Take the sacrament: honor His name
- Move the paper to the right: do what is right
- Make a candle stick & flicker with fingers: follow his light
- Missionary name tag: Truth I will proclaim
These are pictures of the actions you are creating. The blue represents the folded piece of paper:

Camille I LOVE this lesson plan idea but I am having a hard time getting some of the links to work. I downloaded the visuals from Susan Finch but cannot find the “My Testimony” picture for the center, the word bubbles with each line of the song that go over the visuals or the original outline of your lesson plan. Can you help me get those links?
Thanks for all you do to share these wonderful primary music teaching ideas! I love them and use your ideas all of the time!
