I am like a Star
Tell the children that they can be like stars when
they have courage like Esther. Ask them what they could do and what they
could say to show the kind of courage Esther had. Alternate between what the
children can do (“I can invite a friend to Primary” or “I can turn
off a television show that isn’t appropriate”) and what they can say
(“I don’t think the words to this song are very good. Let’s listen to
something else” or “Let’s include Joey in our baseball game. He looks
lonely.”). [Suggestions
taken from the September 2006 Friend]
Here is an idea from Christy's Clipart.
(Idea by Katie Boeckel) I taught
it to senior primary (most of them knew it anyway), just by singing it with
them like 3 times. But I was really impressed with the way I did it
for junior primary, and just wanted to share my actions in case anyone is
looking (or will be).
Line 1: We held our hands in a diamond shape above our heads
Line 2: Sang with a smile and our hands formed to make a circle (the
world) in front of our bodies
Line 3: Point at our mouths and smile
Line 4: sign language (we had already learned all of the words because we
did I Know My Father Lives in sign language earlier this year)
