May (2018) is another "choose your own song" month for Primary music leaders.
Then in the Outline for Sharing Time they have Helps for the music
leader (see May on page 11) and it shows wordstrips for "We Thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet."
I chose to teach that song for May, but I have so many junior primary
kids that don't read, I wanted to use pictures instead. So I started
gathering pictures - but what kind of picture do you get for "we thank
thee?" After thinking about it for a while, I chose a combination of
words and pictures. I realized that it's the same words for each line
(almost) - "we thank thee," and that the kids can learn to recognize
that repeating phrase even though they don't read. Anyway, here is what I came up with, I hope it
can help someone else too. Just cut each page into four, or don't, it's up to you.
