I've made this singing time activity based on a handmade one I used last time.<br />
<br />
Firstly I love to include a poster each week- here is one I put together... I also used this for a front cover to the section in my singing-time folder for mothers day songs! (Just an idea you may want to use)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now you have the printouts - whats the aim of the game?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The aim is to celebrate mothers day. When you start you begin by asking... why is today a special day? you then go on to explain that you need help picking some flowers to put in the flower pot to give to our mothers! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Before hand hide the six or more flowers round the room.... each time you choose a happy helper, they then find a a flower pick it and add it to our pot (on the top of one of the stems!) you then sing the song on the back. At the end of singing time I plan to give them each a flower (either printable, fake or fresh flower) to give to their mothers. Possibly one like this below:</div>

<br />
Things needed:<br />
- I used my Ipod and Headphones (but anything you can download the church songs onto and then play back using headphones will work)<br />
- Love Heart Printables (see below)<br />
<br />
OK so depending on primary size - split into two groups:<br />
- get them to come up with a team name (preferably about love/ valentines)<br />
- 1st team nominates a team member to come to the front they put the head phones on and have to listen to the song and hum it back to their team..... their team then has to guess the song. if guessed correctly they move up on the leaderboard (love hearts) if wrong they stay at the same place.<br />
<br />
*This continues until a team gets to the top first (winner heart)*<br />
the winners win a pack of love hearts (sweets) - the losing team gets a love heart.<br />
<br />
These are the songs i downloaded ( most are about love BUT i added some favourites as well)<br />

<br />
1- We LOVE Primary<br />
<br />
Things need:<br />
- envelopes (print the airmail picture below and stick on envelopes)<br />
- bag (mail bag) that the letters are put into<br />
- Hersheys Kisses<br />
- Jar (stick on the label (below)<br />
<br />
This is a fun, cute and simple valentines game suitable for music time.<br />
-On each of the Hershey kisses write a childs name (i stuck a white sticker on the bottom and wrote on that- make sure there each child has a kiss(chocolate) with their name on. once finished put these into your jar.<br />
- Then i used 7 envelopes (you can do more or less) inside the envelopes I wrote a song to sing (all relating to love):<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">Jesus Said Love Everyone p. 61</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">Reverence is Love p. 31</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">Love One Another p. 136</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">I'll Walk With You (3rd verse only) p. 140</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">I Love To See The Temple p. 95</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">We Are Different p. 263</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">Love is Spoken Here p. 190</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">Where Love Is p. 138</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">I'm Trying to Be Like Jesus p. 78</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">Teacher, Do You Love Me? p. 178</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;">- I sealed the envelopes and put them into my mail bag.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;">I started singing time by explaining the game and the said something like:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;">"we all have our favourite songs that we love, well today we are going to sing some songs that remind us of what we love. To start we are going to sing my favourite song - "Jesus wants me for a sunbeam" .... I'll be looking for the biggest sunbeam (actions) to start us off on our game"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;">You pick a child- they pick a letter from the mail bag.... OPEN it and we all sing the song.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;">I then pick out a kiss from the jar... that child comes and pick a letter. and sooo on.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;">It works well and the children get involved! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: x-small;">p.s * I also learnt that the children didn't know many of these songs soooo throughout last year we practiced so THIS VALENTINES we will be pros.</span></div>

<br />
A big thing I struggled with at the beginning of my calling was knowing a great way of re-gaining the children's attention without raising my voice or coming across to annoyed when voices are raised, well here are few ideas I've tried and they have worked:<br />
<br />
1- Puzzle on the board<br />
- Display on the board a puzzle (I used the picture below, I printed, Laminated and then gut into about 5 pieces)<br />
- Every-time the children get distracted or too noisy, I then take off a piece of the puzzle, if all puzzle pieces are down, we then stop the game.<br />
<br />
*Luckily I've never had to take off all pieces BUT its great to getting their attention because as soon as I'm quite and heading for the puzzle, all eyes are on me and quiet*<br />
<br />

2- Sweety Jar<br />
- This one I was recommended from a family member and it works AMAZINGLY.<br />
- If I was using this it would last the month (so carry it on for 4 weeks)<br />
- fill a jar of sweets ADD the Label (below)<br />

- explain at the start of the month that you have a jar full of yummy sweets - at the end of them month each child will be able to have some sweets (depending on primary size- you'll share them out equally)<br />
-BUT every time your too noisy or not listening the sweets will go down. HERE IS THE BEST PART:<br />
- If the children loose concentration, become noisy, etc YOU eat a sweet from the JAR.<br />
<br />
*This works amazingly, the children quickly quiet down and are focused on you and the sweets*<br />

A new thing I started was bringing in a little something for the birthday girl or boy.<br />
<br />
"CUPCAKES" - we all love to be given something on our birthdays and so things are as follows:<br />
<br />
- I asked the primary for a list of the children's birthdays.<br />
- I added this into a word document to add to my Music Time folder. (see below)<br />
- Then each birthday I bake a small muffin, and add the CTR toppers (see below also)<br />
- In England we have a cheap store called 'Home Bargins", they sell little boxes suitable to hold a cupcake:<br />
they look similar to this one:<br />

<br />
You choose a child who has been sitting nicely to come and choose a picture from the bag (cut out the bigger pictures) they then try guess the song- we then sing the song according to the picture:<br />
<br />
for example:<br />
sunbeam - "Jesus wants me for a sunbeam"<br />
Chapel - "The Chapel Doors"<br />
question mark - they choose a song<br />
<br />
the children then cross out that picture on their bingo boards.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;">*AIM is the first one to get a four in a row or if your nice a three in a row diagonally!!</span><br />

I'm excited to start teaching the children this coming Sunday (I'm sure the older ones may already know this) HENCE the extra effort to make it fun. I will be starting off by teaching the song using my homemade picture boards. I used these pictures i found online to help me ( coloured in for extra colour)<br />

As I go along teaching this I have added some actions, that they may enjoy (or for the younger ones make it easier to learn) Ive copied them below:<br />
<br />
Whenever I hear ( point to ear)<span style="color: #0b5394;"> </span>the song of a bird (clasp my thumbs together to make bird movements)<br />
Or look at the blue blue sky (Point to the sky).<br />
Whenever I feel the rain on my face ( patter my fingers on my cheeks)<br />
Or the wind ( swish my hand from side to side)<span style="color: orange;"> </span>as it rushes by.<br />
<br />
Whenever I touch (touch my hand) a velvet rose<br />
Or walk by a lilac tree.<br />
I'm glad I live in this beautiful world ( using my second fingers on both hands make a circle)<br />
Heavenly Father ( point toward heaven) created for me.<br />
<br />
He gave me<span style="color: orange;"> </span>eyes (Point to eyes) that I might see,<br />
the colour of butterfly wings.<br />
He gave me ears (point to ears) that i might hear<br />
the magical sound of things.<br />
<br />
He gave me<span style="color: orange;"> </span>my life, my mind, my heart (point to you, your head and then your heart)<br />
I thank him<span style="color: orange;"> </span>reverently,(fold my arms)<br />
for all his creations of which I'm a part.<br />
Yes i know Heavenly Father loves me. (point toward heaven then to me)<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><br /></span>
I wont step by step teach these actions as they will remember them when singing the words. (the younger ones may need extra help)<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0c343d;">Then depending on the time I plan to encompass the skittles (coloured sweets) game.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0c343d;">Instructions:</span><br />
<span style="color: #0c343d;">1- on a white board write out the lyrics using different coloured pens (preferably colours that are in the skittles pack)</span><br />
<span style="color: #0c343d;">2- pick a child who has sung well and sitting reverently, they close their eyes, choose a skittle from the bowl and taste it - trying to guess (the flavor or colour)</span><br />
<span style="color: #0c343d;">3- if correct they choose a song to sing.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0c343d;">4- if incorrect rub off from white board all lyrics written in that colour</span><br />
<br />
*this goes on for however long you want or have time for*<br />
<br />
Then to finish off you try to sing My Heavenly Father Loves me again (off of the white board) however this time words will be missing... for the younger ones continue to do actions to make it easier for them to remember BUT the older primary should try alone!!<br />

(Drum roll please)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So I'm Lucy, 19 years of age and enjoying life !!! (most of the time) I have an amazing family some awesome friends and THE BEST CALLING EVER.... Primary Teacher and Primary Music time leader!! YAY </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This blog I'm purely dedicating to My callings in primary! I've been in the calling for close to a year, and I'm still always looking for ideas.... I've had a few people ask for things that I've done that they can use and thought I will start a blog that way anyone with the same calling looking for ideas can use them too!!</span><br />
