Make sure to check out my most recent planner HERE.

I’ve got my 2020 Singing Time Planner all ready to get you organized!  I’ve made a few adjustments now that I’ve acclimated to the new 2-hour block meeting schedule and Come Follow Me curriculum.  Check out more details below!

Camille's Primary Ideas: singing time planner

I’ve seen LOTS of singing time planners and schedulers out there.  I like to plan only a month ahead (with the exception of my yearly outline summary using the Music for Singing Time 2020 found HERE.

Music for Singing Time 2020

Along with my annual CD found HERE that our primary hands out as our Christmas gift.

If you aren’t familiar with my monthly singing time schedules, you can check them all out HERE.

Camille's Primary Ideas January Singing Time Schedule Lesson Plan Ideas

Thanks to lots of feedback, I’ve created a planner that lets you plan weekly, monthly or the entire year if you like! Personally, I like to plan monthly but do what works best for you and your primary!

I think my favorite planner out there (and from what I can tell, I’m not alone!) is the one from Primary Singing Time Ideas found HERE.  It’s  basic and simple yet very organized and efficient – just the way I like things ;).  Unfortunately, Brittney (the blog author) isn’t currently updating her blog – at least what I can see.  So I’ve taken the liberty to create a Singing Time Planner using her template as a guide.

How my Singing Time Planner works:

The songs listed at the top of the page are the monthly Music for Singing Time 2020 song suggestions.  The songs that are randomly at the bottom of each weekly block date are songs that are suggested in the Come Follow Me-Primary curriculum.  If a song was suggested in the primary manual and it’s already a monthly singing time song, I’ve left it off for that particular week.

I’ve also included the weekly theme that is suggested in the Come Follow Me-Primary in case you want to try and incorporate that into singing time somehow.

These monthly schedules can be downloaded from my Resource Library.   To receive initial access to my Resource Library, click on the button at the bottom of this post and that link will be emailed to you.  If you’ve already joined, go to my Resource Library link that was emailed to you.  Filing instructions are at the bottom of this post.

Each monthly planner is its own document so you can easily print one at a time.  If you want to fill in the document before printing, I’ve learned how!

I use a Mac so if it’s different on a PC, I apologize!

  • Download the singing time schedule PDF document
  • Open the document in Preview and click on Tools > Annotate > Text
  • A text box will appear in the middle of the document.  Drag and drop it to where you’d like to type text
  • Repeat with more text boxes (can copy and paste works well) until you’ve filled the document
  • Easy!

I’ve left lots of space for you to cater this planner to your primary’s needs.  Our primary likes to sing during “Transition” time so I’ve added this to my schedule.

This year during this time, I’ll be pulling out my Wiggle Worm Jar which is full of Wiggle Songs (just what those kids need coming from Sacrament Meeting!).  Find details on that jar HERE.

Then we’ll end our transition time by singing The Books in the Book of Mormon using my interactive bookshelf HERE

How I use my Singing Time Planner!

On my singing time schedule, I write in “Wiggle Worm songs” and “The Books in The Book of Mormon” in the “Transition” section.  Then when I give a copy of my monthly schedule to my pianist, he knows what the plan is.  He has a separate list of all my Wiggle Worm songs that includes all the page numbers as well.

The “Singing Time” section is where you can fill in what you will be teaching during singing time.  Then the “Other” section is anything that doesn’t fall into the other 2 categories.

Some primaries still celebrate birthdays with a birthday song, or welcome visitors, etc.  This is a way to accommodate any “other” singing you may do in singing time.  It’s also nice just for some more writing space ;).

Camille's Primary Ideas: Blank Singing Time Planner

I also have a blank singing time schedule that would work with any month and any year.  You simply fill it out by hand or by using my instructions above.

  1. I love your schedule for 2020 – so cute!
    Could you take the “sample text box”es off January, though? I’m trying to print it off mobile and can’t edit pdfs to remove them myself.
    Thanks again!

  2. I can’t access your 2020 monthly Singing time schedule! I have tried accessing it for a half hour and just keep going in circles! Help!

  3. Thank you so much, Camille! I’m a busy Mama with 5 littles and your posts are a big help! Thank you for sharing your talents!

    1. Hi Rebecca!

      Sorry you are having issues. I’ll email the files to you. I did just try and download them and they appear to be working on my end so I’m not sure what to fix.
