When it comes to FP+ priority, the ones you really need to be concerned with are the headliners: Slinky Dog, Flight of Passage, and Seven Dwarves. Everything else shouldn't give you any problems that far in advance. As long as you can get those headlines that you want, I wouldn't think you will have any trouble with any of the other rides. You'll likely have a lot of times to choose from for every other ride.

Slinky Dog is the only one of those big rides that I see on your list. If that's the only one you are interested in of the rides I mentioned, make sure you try to get that one first out of every other ride. Once you get Slinky Dog for the date and times you want, fill in the gaps with all of the other things.
 
The only important ones are SDD. Book the others with whatever is most convenient to your plans. No need to break the less desirable ones out in any order. Start with your DHS days in full, then go from there.
 
Unfortunately we are unable to ride FOP or Seven Dwarves, so those are definitely not on the list.

In that case Slinky Dog is the only one that you really would need to worry about. Get that one first for whatever days and times you want, and every other ride on your list you shouldn't have trouble getting.
 
Your order looks pretty good overall. I would keep all of your Peter Pan's Flight near the top of your list (before sing along). It can be difficult to get good times sometimes.
 
My booking window is coming up soon for our stay June 6-June 17

Soon? Doesn't it come up in April? I mean, I guess technically, it is soon as Jan and Feb seemed to "fly" right on by. I only ask because I'm saying it's not coming soon enough and my trip is 4 days before yours putting my window on April 3rd.

And how come you're not doing 7DMT or FoP?

While I agree, a lot of people have been seeing their booking windows opening up as early as 15 days early as of late, so I want to have my plans in place in case that happens to me.

I didn’t know that was a possibility. So are people just checking to see and finding it’s open?
 
Yeah, apparently, I think it was being talked about on one of the three so talking about how split stays are handled with separate booking windows now, otherwise I wouldn't have known either. The general consensus is that it is a Disney IT mess up, but they don't seem to be doing anything to fix it yet or removing people's FPs that were booked early. It may or may not be tied to date based tickets as well, no one is quite sure.
