I don't have fb and finally borrowed my hubby's acct to log in to try and print them and scrib'd then wanted money. It said I could upload, but many of my files are created by others and I figured it was plagiarism to upload something I didn't create.

I have been dealing with sick kids all week and haven't been able to spend the time I usually do preparing for singing time. I just happen to ALREADY HAVE this poster sitting in my closet from when I taught primary a few years ago, plus I already have the CTR sticks made up. You seriously must have made this post JUST FOR ME! Thanks a million!

If you download the Word doc, it will probably download into your download folder so you will need to go there to open up the file.

What a dream that would be. ;-) I do try to focus them learning the song of the month, but I also try and incorporate other songs to teach or review in the month so they don't get bored and have more of a variety. The first year I did this calling I tried to push hard in getting them to get the words memorized right away, but soon learned it was seeming more like work instead of a joy to sing for the children and I still had to do the crunch time practice before the program, so I have relaxed a little. After teaching the monthly song, I will use the flip charts whenever we sing, since we don't always sing every song each week, to help keep it fresh in their minds and to help the teachers and over time with the repetitive singing the children, each at their own pace, start getting the song down. As they pick up more and more of the song, I will start weening them from the visual aids in different ways like covering some of the words up to help force them in concentrating on what they should be singing and when it looks like a good portion have the song down, I will stop using the visual aids. This seems, at least for my primary, to make it easier for the children come program practice crunch time in getting the songs down. I'm sure other Primary Music Leaders may do it differently or may not even use many visuals at all. I am a visual person and I do have many children that are as well, so this helps with my Primary. As you work with your children, you will start seeing what works and what doesn't with them.Nalanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15684140024588750179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4642422797675137112.post-80562177748565828082012-02-25T08:20:50.445-07:002012-02-25T08:20:50.445-07:00I love your site and thank you so much.

Do your primary children have all these songs memorized or do you get out words for each of these different songs when you sing them?JuLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10603972330277718531noreply@blogger.com
