Back to school
by Tasha Reeve

Tell the children that you have been thinking about them all starting school and you came up with a fun game to review some of their favourite subjects from school. Explain that not only do they learn the gospel in primary but many other subjects as well. Todays singing time will be a lot like school. Sunday School!
 
Be sure to have enough pencils for each child to come up and pick one from a can, one at a time. They get to keep the pencil. If the pencil they pick has a small sticker or marking on it (you mark them ahead of time) they can pick a subject from the chalk board. After they pick a subject, you tell them how it relates to the following song.

 

Art Our Primary Colours
Language Arts
Love is Spoken Here
(Do they all speak love at home?)
Gym
Do as I'm Doing
(pick sports actions)

(tell them this song is about the history of the book of Mormon and how it came to be)
