When you open the front cover there is a list of years and program themes that i've done.
The contents page now holds a photocopy of those pages, containing my master list. I highlight the songs the kids know, that way I can keep rotating them because I remember what they are. Because this is a new ward from the last time I did music, and our ward was split last year, I spent a long time compiling this list by playing "What do you know?" on Sundays. This list is invaluable during Holidays, when you can't remember exactly what they know from last year. Also, it reminds me to keep using the songs they know so that they can remember them, and also because they love these songs!

Oh I love your book too! Great memories!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!
ReplyDeleteI'm a new chorister. So having a master list that I can highlight and see what they know will be great! I'm definitely going to play a little "What Do You Know". Thanks for all your ideas.
