0 Re: [primusic] I Love to See the Temple

 

I did this with my kids and they asked about doing it over and over again for weeks.  My Stake Primary Presidency just happened to be visiting when I did this, and they told the other song leaders in the stake about the idea.  It is a ton of fun!

I did this as a review for I love to see the temple on week three.  The kids LOVED it, both jr. and sr.  Go for it!

I'm doing I Love to See the Temple this month because I did The Lord Gave Me a Temple last month.  I was wondering how this turned out.  What did the kids think of it and did it work well?  Thanks--love the idea!

I pulled this idea from others so I don't take credit for this one. 

My Junior Primary doesn't know this song well at all.  A few of them are familiar with it, and my Senior Primary is familiar with the melody, but jumble the words, so I'm planning to do the colored water/vinegar experiment.

I plan to have pictures to go along with the first verse in order on the chalk board.  For example for the first phrase, "I love to see the temple", I'll have a heart pasted on a green colored paper, and then next to it on a blue paper, I'll have a picture of a Temple, etc. for the whole song.  The pictures will all be put on different colored cardstocks that will correspond with the colors I'm using in the "experiment".

I will have 8 clear plastic cups two of them filled with vinegar and six filled with water.  I'll have eight plastic spoons already laid out with food coloring hiding under baking soda. Then one child will come up and pick a spoon and mix it into the cup.  It will turn a certain color and those are the pictures I'll take off the board and then we'll sing again.  Soon you won't have any pictures on the board and hopefully the kids will know the song by heart. 

The two cups with vinegar will bubble/fizz.  I'll let them pick a favorite song or wiggle song, or I might even have them sing ILTSTT again but in a funny way (opera, robot, etc.).

I'm new to the calling, so maybe you have all done this one already.  I just have a hard time teaching the kids a new song without something that keeps their attention.  They seem to stop paying attention after we have sung it twice.  

Hopefully this will work!
