If I don't hear from you, I'll start with just the first one and you can let me know if want the others. I also have a post coming with some instructions on creating your own, just in case you come across another song that you want to teach that doesn't already have one! And I LOVE it when there are Priesthood holders teaching primary music - what better example can you be setting?! Thanks for all you do!Brittneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11115093045745934275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891657645542741911.post-4449121599405701462013-02-25T10:09:04.921-07:002013-02-25T10:09:04.921-07:00I used something like this last year for our prima...I used something like this last year for our primary.

It's helped me out many times. <br /><br />I want to teach my kids "Joseph Smith's First Prayer" aka "Oh How Lovely Was The Morning" from the Hymn book. I haven't found any flipcharts that could help me do this. <br /><br />Would you one or teach me how to?<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />PeterAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08920735488030257252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891657645542741911.post-44055707273640564202013-02-21T13:21:11.180-07:002013-02-21T13:21:11.180-07:00I try to use flip charts for the song of the month...I try to use flip charts for the song of the month...but I don't like all of the words on my flipcharts, just some key words/phrases. Also I love the colorful and cartoon-ish pictures, like from the Friend, but when I try and only use "real" pictures of Christ. So I often use a cartoon picture and just tape a pass-along size card of Christ over the cartoon picture of him. Anyhow, yes, I would love help with visuals for the songs of the month with keywords! Love the blog! I am new as of January and my primary LOVED the Heads, shoulders, knees and toes that I used from your blog!

My Primary is huge, which I love, but in the future if you do any flipcharts please make the font bigger. I love your ideas and can always use more game ideas or ideas for teaching new songs.

I am still pretty new to this calling and am feeling a little inadequate because I have no musical background whatsoever. I have a few questions and maybe I can find the answers if I search your blog. What are some things that you do during singing time when you're not teaching the children a new song? What do you do when sr. primary is uninterested in what you're doing? How do I get sr. primary to sing louder? What do you do when the kids are starting to get out of control (especially the new sunbeams)? And lastly, what do you do to fill time if the president asks to take up more time because the person in charge of sharing time hasn't arrived? I hope I did not overwhelm you! I am just getting nervous that I am running out of things to do and I don't want to be repetitive or boring. Thank you for this awesome post! I hope to be as helpful as you someday!Nichole Potterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00363995815227259863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891657645542741911.post-18353349039797105512013-02-19T21:00:44.213-07:002013-02-19T21:00:44.213-07:00I am really struggling with my Junior Primary.

I've just been called to be the chorister and am having a hard time with structuring singing time. When do you do what? What elements does a successful singing time include? Should you do a game every time? How much time should I spend on a new song each week? Is the jr. primary capable of learning all the verses to these songs? Thanks in advance!katikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155268557821051417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4891657645542741911.post-69230542752058634442013-02-19T15:51:32.911-07:002013-02-19T15:51:32.911-07:00Printables!!

I find flipcharts usually use a lot of colored printer ink (unless they are black and white and I can color them), and my cartridges run out quick after having to do one for each new song the kids learn! Games would be great! I need inspiration for sure. I find I'm always playing "hotter colder" with the kids or rolling the die for different ways to sing songs. I'm a new follower so I can't wait to browse through everything you have here. It's soooo great to have people like you who can help us who aren't so creative!

If you're not teaching a new song? I plan 1-2 weeks only. Am I just a disorganized mess? Should I be thinking about those already?

Things to keep in mind: we have a combined Primary (no junior/senior) and we have some deaf children, so it needs to be strictly visual. Any suggestions?
