These are an inexpensive prop that no primary should be without! They are inexpensive, re-usable and can be used in a variety of ways! Check out a few ways to use them in singing time below…
Simple Actions
Pointing
Take a simple flip chart or words and place them around the room out of order. Turn off the lights and have the primary find the correct pages, words, pictures as you sing the song using their finger lights!
A great example is my lesson plan for I’m Trying to Be Like Jesus HERE.
Wand Cards
References to Light
ASL
If you have taught any simplified ASL actions in singing time, review them using finger lights! It creates an epic added effect, especially when done in the dark!

10 thoughts on “Finger Light Review”
I don't have a Facebook account. Can you put out another link where I can find the finger light idea?
Hi Carrie!
I've just reached out to the chorister who posted them on FB asking if she'd mind sharing them on YouTube as well. I have no sharing capabilities outside of Facebook, I'm sorry. I'll keep you posted. In the mean time, I did quickly type up the chorus actions here if it helps at all:
Choose the right: hands go out to the side of the body one at a time then cross in the middle (repeat)
Wisdom: draw a "W" in the air
Mark the path: make a path like someone directing traffic
Light: exploding hands above head
Choose the right: repeat action above
God: sign for God but using 2 hands
Bless: ASL sign for love
Evermore: ASL sign for evermore using 2 hands

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
Carrie,
I've updated the post so it now links the YouTube videos…I hope it helps.
Thanks!

Wow. That is so wonderful! It helps a lot. Thank you so much for doing that. I am super excited to teach it today!
Do you happen to have a digital file of the scarf action cards? OCD has taken everything off her blog, so the link no longer works. Thank you!
Hi Annie,
I don't have these files – I must have printed mine directly from her website. But I've posted on the FB group to see if anyone else still has the files.
I suppose worst case scenario I can take a picture of my documents but the quality won't be as nice. I'll keep you posted.

Hi Annie,
I've updated the post with 6 of the 12 actions for now…hopefully it's a start. I'll try to add more soon.
Hi Annie (again!),
I've got them all linked above, thanks to wonderful choristers on the FB group who shared their files!! Enjoy!!

How long have your finger lights lasted?
