He Sent His Son

A few months ago, I filled in one Sunday for the Primary Chorister at our church and I needed to help the children learn the song…”He Sent His Son”.  While holding that position before, I thought it was difficult to teach the children songs without some kind of visual aid so I got some ideas from around the internet and set out to make some posters.  I tweaked my posters a little before adding them to this blog and I think I like them better than the ones I originally made.  I tried to make them with just a little color so it wouldn’t take much of my ink cartridge to print them out on cardstock.  The last three pictures on the right-hand side of the page did not print out very dark…more of a greyish outline, so I had to use a marker and trace over those three pictures.  After I had them all printed and outlined, I placed each one in a protective sheet cover.
First, I would post the question on the magnetic chalkboard and then I would have the children give me the answer.  After correctly answering the question, I then posted the answer next to the question.  The children really had a fun time doing this and although they kind of knew the song before-hand, this game helped them to really learn the words.

Hi Marsha!

So smart! I love that song! I'll bet the kids loved the posters.

I have only been in Primary one time, and I loved it! It would be fun to work again with little kids . . . I have never even been asked to sub!

Hugs,
Barb

P.S. Waiting to see that new pic!
