Guest Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Hiya, Last year the children created a poem about their mums for my assembly.Cant remember what was in it but something like why they loved their mums, what they could do to help mums and we asked the children to bring in photos of when they were young.Someone in the school put them in a slide show and played it to music for the introduction. Most of the parents had a tear in their eyes because it was a surprise. Hope this helps good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblejack Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Out of the ark music do an Easter tape that has a wide range of songs suitable for mothers day, Spring and religious.Children and parents loved it and so did our vicar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 There is a storybook called "My Mum is Fantastic"; you could use it to encourage the children to produce their own pictures and sentences to contribute to the assembly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelle Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 We dramatised the story of Baby Goz on year. - A sweet little 4 year old dressed up as the gosling and came across different animals and asked each one in turn 'Are You My Mummy? and the animal answered No I am not your mummy i am a rabbit etc....until he came across his own mummy who answered Yes I am your mummy and I love you very much. Simple repeating text which worked really well and the children dreseed up was really cute. The children then read their 'I love my mummy because....' (we got things like kind, pretty etc) The children then sang a religious song with lovely words thanking God for their mums. (could have been the out of the ark one) Ended with each child giving their mum a daffodil. Not a dry eye in the place! I am sure whatever you decide will be lovely. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
