Opening Exercises (10:45am)

Junior Primary (11:00-11:20), Senior Primary (12:05-12:25) 

1. Action Song: Give Said the Little Stream (236) - stand on words that begin with "S", clap on words that begin with "G". 
2. Program Songs:
• Praise to the Man (Hymn 27) - Start by showing the YouTube video of Praise to the Man, verses 1-3 to inspire the children and invite the Spirit. Invite the children to hum along during the video.

• Teach the chorus by using Sharla Dance's beat technique:

Stand up raising hands above head, sit down

Stand up raising hands above head, sit down

Patsch, patsch, patsch, Make an ugly face like a tyrant,

Patsch, patsch, fist thumps against other palm four times (va-a-i-n)

Patsch, patsch, patsch, patsch, point to your head as if planning something, cross arms across heart

Wag finger as if saying no, Patsch, patsch, patsch

• Ask the children to "Freeze" at different times and see if their actions match my own. (Assess trouble spots)
• The Kind of Dad I See (printed) - Play the slideshow while I sing the song to the children. Ask children to listen for what words finish the phrase, "When I see a dad..." (quickly before I sing, teach the melody of the phrase "when I see a dad" to the children using pitch leading, sing phrase 3 times).  After singing, put up the slideshow pictures and words on the board as the children recall the song's phrases. Sing again to/with the children, inviting them to sing along to the phrase, "When I see a dad".
