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)
I love your site! I love the idea of the treasure map to ready for the program. I was brainstorming something similar and would love to hear what you do. O think I'm going to do Mad Gab for "diction desert", play with our bells for "pitch point", trying to think of something for rhythm river or something with missing words. Still brainstorming. Excited to see what you do!
Check out these singing time ideas for teaching the hymn Did You Think to Pray? in singing time! There’s bound to be something to accommodate your primary’s learning style and needs!
Round up some lost leprechauns (or lost sheep!) during singing time! Your primary will want to participate in this St. Patrick’s Day singing time review activity a million times over! And the best part is you can sing ANY primary song(s) with this lost leprechaun singing time review activity!
New Primary Music Leader?
I’ll send you all my well-organized resources for new primary leaders!
Make singing timeeasy!
Get it to-go!
Singing time just got even easier! With my Singing Time To-Go, all you have to do is print! Be prepared for the entire month – every month!
