Red Ribbon Week Success!!

This week there was a competition between all the classes in the school to create and perform a song or cheer for Red Ribbon Week.  I am proud to announce that our class won the school competition!  Together we changed the lyrics to the song "Dynamite" to make our own song about choosing to be drug free.  We even put dance moves to it and it was super!  The kids were so creative and enthusiastic throughout the process and the performances for Mrs. Harris, Mrs. Pfaff, and Mrs. Hammons (our judges)!  When the announcement was made at the end of the day to say that we won the kids jumped up and down and screamed!  As a reward for winning they each received a Red Ribbon Week pencil, activity book, crayons, and a sticker.  The song will be broadcast on the school newscast for all students to see tomorrow!

The lyrics are below followed by the video of our performance.  :o)

Whitley’s Drug Free Song
(to the tune of “Dynamite”)

I throw my hands up in the air sometimes because I’m drug free
We are drug free
I want to celebrate and live my life because I’m drug free
We are drug free
We gonna just say no
We gonna walk away
We gonna just say no
Because we’re healthy
And we’re drug free!
Yeah we’re drug free!
