Junior Primary
To teach "Stand for the Right" to the junior primary, we first learned all of the words with actions.
Our prophet (touch your head like you're really smart--because our prophets are smart)
has some words (touch your mouth) for you (point to "you")
And these are the words (touch your mouth), Be true! Be true! (pump your fist in the air on "true")
At work (sweep the floor) or at play (wave your hands in the air like you're playing/dancing)
In darkness (cover your eyes) or light (open your eyes)
Be true! Be true! (pump your fist in the air on "true") and stand (stand up) for the right
Then we practiced singing the song while standing like different animals/people. Here are some ways to stand:
Muscle man
Ballerina
T-Rex
Flamingo
Egyptian
Model
Catcher
Senior Primary
To teach "Stand for the Right" to the senior primary, we learned the words with the actions (see above). Then we played pictionary. I split the group into two teams. Each team sent one person to the front to draw (they sat in a chair at the front with a pencil and paper). I gave each of them a word (the words all rhymed with TRUE), and they only had as long as it took us to sing the song to draw their word. Then they handed their drawing to their team, and each team had to guess the word they drew. If they got the word right, their team got a point.
Here are some words that rhyme with TRUE:
blue
chew
hairdo
barbecue
clue
fondue
canoe
horseshoe
kungfu
shampoo
tissue
moo
flu
glue
stew
zoo
To make it more fun for the singers, we sang the song in a different way each time. Here are some ways to sing the song:
Opera
Low
High
Slow
Fast
British accent
Jazzy
The team that sang the song the best got a point too.
