I am a huge fan of music.  If you’ve followed my blog for very long you may have seen me write posts reviewing music, posts that were completely inspired by a song, or even posts like this one where I share with you some great music!

So that’s my goal today.  Every morning on the announcements (and every morning as a classroom teacher) I loved to start the day with music.  But not just any music.  I’ve always chosen music with a message.  Are the kids listening to the lyrics? Or are they just enjoying the beat? For me, it doesn’t matter, but if they ARE listening to the lyrics, I want the lyrics to be those that are empowering and positive.

So, here are a few of my current favorites!
