I will spend this Sunday working on Mother's Day song, before moving back into my regular monthly song plans for the remainder of the month.
As I mentioned before, I chose:
We already started learning the first song the last few weeks, and the second song is more of a review. So, this Sunday's focus is:
1. Review verse 1 of "I Think the World is Glorious."
2. Learn verse 2 of "I Think the World is Glorious."
3. Review "Mother Dear."
I Think the World is Glorious
1. Put up my poster from last week and sing the song one time through - no fancy tricks. Just sing it one time through. It's a short verse. Review any problem areas briefly.

2. Introduce second verse. I'll play "What's different with this poster?" and have added the additional items that represent the new line in the second verse. There is only ONE new line in the second verse so that will be the very simple addition to learn verse 2. Once the children identify the pictures, I'll tell them the line - or I'll sing the line and then have them identify the pictures.
3. To review the entire song a few times I will put objects in a bag that represent objects in the song. Whatever a child draws out of the bag is how we have to sing the song:
Blossoms - sing like a blossom blowing in the wind. Discuss how that would sound - smooth. Have them move their bodies like bodies in the wind.
Bees - sing in a silly buzzing voice
Birds - have them sing back and forth like birds chattering to one another
Teachers - sing with their arms folded, very reverently
Parents - pat each other on the back as you sing
Mother Dear
I will review Mother Day with the big, colorful cut-outs I made for a previous Mother's Day and attached to magnets. I usually go for something more elaborate but the kids loved the big, bright colors, especially junior primary of course.
I will take advantage of the magnets on the back and just put these all over the room and maybe even underneath chairs. The children will be asked to look for the parts of the song and put them up as we sing them a few times.
Up next: I just finished a flip chart for "An Angel Came to Joseph Smith" and will be posting it in the next few days.
As I mentioned before, I chose:
- I Think the World is Glorious - This song is not only appropriate to honor our Fathers and Mothers but it fits in very well with the message from "My Heavenly Father Loves Me," and Spring in general.
- Mother Dear - I wanted to sing one blatantly obvious Mother's Day song, and this is among my top three favorites.
