We had a fantastic review of the program songs today using the scriptures annotated in the Children's Songbook. I was inspired by this "The Children Sing" post. I wrote the scripture reference on each paper and used them as bookmarks, having a child point to the paper he/she wanted. We read from my scriptures, discussed it's significance, then had fun guessing which song it referred to. I asked the children to try and reflect on the scripture we read as we sang the corresponding song. I bore testimony at the end of our singing time, that the principles in the scriptures and in the songs we sang are true.Matthew 19:13-15 (I Know that My Savior Loves Me)
Galatians 3:26 (The Fourth Article of Faith)
John 3:16 (He Sent His Son)
D & C 18:34-36 (This is My Beloved Son)
2Nephi 31:10 (Come, Follow Me)
D&C 115:4-5 (The Church of Jesus Christ)
D&C 21:4-7 (Follow the Prophet)
John 14:26 (The Holy Ghost)
I had the song titles written on the chalkboard as reference.
I was trying to come up with a way to talk to the children about what the songs have taught them this year. This works out perfectly! Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteThis is cool!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea. I've been trying to do review activities that weren't all games and this was perfect. Thanks!
