How to Use this Melody Chart:

You can print the version with the bold words or with the small words and either cut off or fold up the words. I have them there to help you visualize and practice the chart, but if you would prefer no words you can simply fold under the bottom edge.

Sing through the song once before showing the melody chart.

Post the first page of the chart and sing the first line – freeze! Wow, were you able to follow that line? Let’s try it again! Repeat first line.

Should we try the next? Sing through the 2nd line. Hmm, that looks like it fit too, let’s try both lines. Sing the first page 2 lines.

Sing through the first two pages (3 lines) again.

Extension Ideas:

  • Split the room into two groups. Alternate singing each time the color changes. The other group can silent sing or can sing only the keywords (symbols).
  • Put all of the charts up on the board out of order. Have the kids help you sort out the correct order, then sing through it noticing patterns.
  • Start with the lyrics version, then switch out 1 or 2 pages at a time to the no words version!
