ROAR words

ROAR with your children!!!

Reading the words as you sing is a GREAT way to improve reading fluency! Visit our Facebook page to see this song come to life!!

I like to practice being proactive

Habit 1 is making good choices

So I sit quietly, and raise my hand politely

Knowing where to begin is where it’s at. You struggle less by starting with the end

I am proactive

So I practice Habit 2

(pre-chorus)

Put first things first that is the key

Already choosing victory

You think win-win, you give to get

That’s where Habit 4 is at

We understand each other’s lives

We listen hard and we don’t deprive

With Habit 5 I see it now

(chorus)

I got the 7 Habits, habits here at Jefferson

Cause I am a leader and you’re gonna hear me Roar

Louder, louder like a lion

Cause I am a leader and you’re gonna hear me Roar

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (repeat 4x)

You’re gonna hear me Roar

Now I’m working hard on Habit 6

Synergizing is the trick

I sharpen my saw, to conquer it all

Pre-chorus

Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (repeat 4x)

You’re gonna hear me Roar

(repeat)

Roar-or, roar-or, roar-or, roar-or

I got the 7 Habits, habits here at Jefferson cause I am a leader and you’re gonna hear me Roar

Louder, louder like a lion cause I am a leader and you’re gonna hear me Roar.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (repeat 4x)

You’re gonna hear me Roar

(repeat)

7 Habits Dynamite!

I’m gonna be, be, be, be

In charge of me so you can

See, see, see, see

Proactive choices out of me, me, me, me

Put first things first that’s the key, key, key, key

*******Yeah, yeah

I’m gonna lead and lead and lead

I put my hands up in the air sometimes saying AY OH here’s what I know

Through 7 habits I can lead in life

Saying AY OH come on let’s go

Cause we’re gonna set high goals

We’re gonna do things right

We’re gonna blow your mind just like dynamite

We’re all leaders here so let our lights burn bright

We’re gonna blow your mind just like dynamite

We understand, stand, stand, stand

By listening so we can plan, plan, plan, plan

With the end in mind the best we can, can, can, can

We’ll synergize and lend a hand, hand, hand, hand

Back to *******Yeah, yeah

Habits Rap

Rappin' the 7 Habits!

Tune in for a special guest star

TOMORROW!!!

We began the school year with our study of roots through our habit of Be Proactive! The students have been learning that when they come to a big word, a knowledge of roots keep them from becoming reactive!

We have moved beyond the roots (prefixes/suffixes) in Proactive Reader and learning new roots of the day! Some classes will be completing a Root Scrapbook and others will simply embed the root in their lessons!

I will be posting the roots of the day on our blog as

well as Facebook! Try to use these at home --it's actually pretty fun!!
