The Holy Ghost Number Problems

How to Play:

Choose to post the post with or without the extra words. I would recommend with the words if you’re learning this song and without the words if it’s a review.

You can use this The Holy Ghost flip chart here.

Sing through the song once, then post this activity up on the whiteboard. Ask the kids what they notice. Let’s sing through the song and see if we can figure out those crazy numbers!

Ask volunteers to solve one of the number problems. Let’s check and see if they were right by singing through the song again. Continue solving the number problems and singing through the song until you’ve figured out each number!

Try skipping all the “number words” the final time you sing through the song.

Extension Activity:

  • Bring an instrument or manipulative to represent each number. Ask for 6 volunteers to come up. Each one can represent one of the numbers and make a bunch of noise whenever it’s their number in the song!
  • Do simple math equations using the numbers! How many times do you see the 2. What is 2+2+2? Or 2×3 equal?

Number Solution:

1 = Us/Our
2 = He
3 = God
4 = Holy
5 = Ghost
6 = Christ

Each number represents the number of letters in each word. Which one is the exception to the rule? I also added the number 1 to stand for any reference to ourselves (us and our in the song).
