August is another “your choice” song! To pick my August song, I looked at August’s theme for the month and started from there (it helps our program jive a little better!).
August’s theme is “Jesus Christ Is the Son of God, and He Is a God of Miracles.” Here are my suggestions (they are all listed under “Jesus Christ – Ministry” in the Topics section in the back of the Children’s Songbook:
- Tell Me the Stories of Jesus p. 57 (find my lesson plan HERE)
- Before I Take the Sacrament p. 73
- Book of Mormon Stories p. 118 (find my lesson plan HERE)
- Had I Been a Child p. 80 (find my lesson plan HERE)
- I Think When I Read That Sweet Story p. 56
- Jesus Loved the Little Children p. 59
- Jesus Said Love Everyone p. 61
- To Think about Jesus p. 71 (find my lesson plan HERE)
You can expand the topic to include the other sub-sections Jesus Christ. If you want to see all the songs listed under those sub-sections, they are HERE and you can see if I have any lesson plans on those songs HERE.
For ideas on teaching the songs where I don’t have a lesson plan linked, I’d reference the following:
- A Children’s Songbook Companion. Find details of this book HERE. Sugardoodle HERE and search for the song alphabetically.
- Search past files on Primusic on Yahoo Groups (find details HERE)
- Google, Pinterest, Facebook (Primary Music Leaders FB Group HERE), or other singing time blogs)
