[HANASHIR:7355] Re: Best Way to Teach/Display Lyrics?

[Singalong2 <Singalong2...>]

I do not have use of an overhead or board, but use chart paper, white butcher 
block paper, and write the lyric in large lettering for all to see. I have 
combined age groups in my religious school classes, but don't use charts for 
under second grade unless they are combined with first. I then will often 
have a teenage assistant go up to the chart and point to the line we're on. 
Many of the kids read very well, even in first grade, and want to read the 
lyrics. The others learn by rote, and often just sing on the refrain. I teach 
in a reform temple and use transliteration.
