Activity:  It’s back-to-school time so we’ll be reviewing with my Back-To-School Review activity HERE only using this year’s program songs.  More to come!

You can also check out all of my review activities HERE.

Then in September, stay tuned for a fun month of reviewing our program songs all with a Treasure Map theme!  It should be X-citing!!  For our primary, October usually consists of 2 weeks spent actually reviewing the program (one Sunday in the primary room and one Sunday in the chapel).  I usually don’t do too much with my review activity on those 2 weeks with the exception of hanging it on the chalkboard and advancing items if need be.

 

I’m still coming up with the details and would LOVE any input you may have!  I would like for it to run like other program reviews I’ve done in the past (mostly like my Road Trip Review but find all of them HERE) with weekly review activities that coincide with advancing toward the end goal.

 

Here are a few ideas I’ve seen that I’ll hopefully be incorporating:

Arrrrr We Program Ready HERE (This Treasure Map would be our guide as we advance to each stop each week)

A searching activity, like the one HERE

This would be fun as a first stop to search for all of our songs, maybe create each song as a ship?

Then playing Primary Battleship another week found HERE.

Primary Songs are a Treasure HERE

I could see this being our last stop, when all the songs are reviewed, well-known and a treat is passed out (maybe on program day in primary).

Anyway, more to come!  If you have any ideas or input, I’d love to hear!

Also, check out all of my Program Helps HERE.  I’ll work on getting them updated for the 2018 program all throughout the month of September.
