INTRO TO: Follow the Prophet

This is my lesson plan for introducing and singing Follow The Prophet:


1. INTRO ACTIVITY:

PLAY:  Simon Says..... (follow what I do)

PARAPHRASE: Great! You guys are good at following directions. But what if the Prophet says to do things? (Give examples...)

--What if the Prophet says... don't drink beer - what do you do? (You follow the Prophet!)
--What if the Prophet says get married in the Temple - what do you do?  (You follow the Prophet!)
--What if the Prophet says to go to Church - what do you do?  (You follow the Prophet!)



2. CHORUS / with movement:

• JR march
• SR clap pattern (lap, lap, clap, snap)

3. PROPHET VERSES:
Now let's sing about Prophets of old...

a.  Get out visual aids  (I Sing, U Sing or Pat Graham)
b.  Invite a child to choose one
c.  Sing that verse + chorus
d.  Repeat



*The next week I will review the song with this CHAIR SPIN idea.
