We've got the whole world in our hands

We've got the whole world in our hands

We've got the whole world in our hands

We've got the whole world in our hands
We've got the itty bitty babies in our hands

We've got the mama's and the papa's in our hands

We've got all God's children in our hands

We've got the great blue whale in our hands
The little nightingale in our hands

We've got the great blue whale in our hands

We've got the whole world in our hands

We've got the rivers and the oceans in our hands
We've got the mountains and the meadows in our hands

We've got the forest and the farmland in our hands

We've got the whole world in our hands
We've got everything we need in our hands
The time is now for all to know

The planet Earth is our only home

People of the world in every land

It's time we understand

We've got the whole world in our hands

The Responsive Classroom Approach

You would be amazed how effective this approach is. I implemented this in a kindergarten class (22 students) for 6 weeks. What a difference and transformation! The Responsive Classroom is an approach to elementary teaching that emphasizes social, emotional, and academic growth in a strong and safe school community. The goal is to enable optimal student learning. Students learn best when they have both academic and social-emotional skills. Teachers must help them build academic and social-emotional competencies.

To teach is to touch a life forever!
