I’m looking forward to March and a couple of weeks off sprinkled throughout the month. I have Stake Conference in March and I’ll also be out of town two week and with General Conference, too, there will be some different weeks for my ward coming up over the next 6 week or so.
I like to use my week off during General Conference to get ahead with my planning and prep so that the rest of April goes smoothly. But first, let’s focus on March! A couple of the lesson plans for this month are already up and available and the rest I plan to work on over the next couple of weeks. 🙂

hi there, I have to teach “did you think to pray” hymn 140.
Do you have any ideas for this?

I haven’t taught that song, so I haven’t come up with anything for it. However, I’d go over to my song planner worksheet. It will make it REALLY easy for you to come up with ideas and plan lessons for ANY song!! https://www.primarysinging.com/song-planner-printable/

I’m Making a word search for this song. I think for all three verses. I feel like teaching each verse with the same method helps tie them all together for the kids.
