See how I use my singing time schedule HERE! Then download an editable and printable version of the below information HERE.
For me, November singing time lesson plans are typically annual repeats (I did the work once and pull it out every year!!), therefore, preparing is rather simple. With simple prep for lesson plans, I’m able to get a jump start on next year. So, later this month watch for posts preparing for 2018! Including my 2018 Outline for Sharing Time summary (see last year’s HERE) and my 2018 CD that our primary hands out as Christmas gifts (find previous years’ HERE). 2018’s Outline for Sharing Time will be a repeat of 2013. You can find all of my 2013 outline-related posts HERE but plan on LOTS of updates :).

If you are wanting to get a jump start on to Christmas, you can check out all of my Christmas singing time lesson plans HERE.
If I could suggest one prop to use for Christmas, it would be the handbells! I absolutely love using handbells this time of year (and Easter. Well, and lots of other times during the year if I’m being honest!!). If your primary doesn’t own handbells and you’d like more information on getting a set for your primary, make sure to check out my post HERE with lots of details. I’ll definitely be using them next month in primary.
If you are unsure how they’d be used in primary, you can sroll through several of my posts HERE on using handbells including lots of bell charts! For December, I am planning on the primary learning The Shepherd’s Carol to sing in sacrament meeting on Christmas Eve using the handbells…more to come!!
