Lights...Camera...Room 5

First things first: the voting results….

Title of Show- Based on the emails I received the winning show title is 'Whatever It Takes!'.  That’s right, the name of the TV show is going to be our classroom motto ‘Whatever It Takes!’.  Thank you to everyone for submitting their suggestions/ideas!

Theme Song- The winning song (based on emails + blog voting results) is ‘Send It On’ by Disney Friends.  So, we are going to try and get that song connected to the show.  Cross your fingers!

Now onto….Lights…Camera…Room 5…..

While Hollywood gets onboard with ‘Whatever It Takes!’, I have been meeting with kids who are already doing ‘Whatever It Takes!’.  Today I met with Room 5.  I knew Room 5 was going to be a special group of kids when I heard about their recent effort to do ‘Whatever It Takes!’ in Africa.  After hearing about their teacher’s recent adventures in Kenya, they decided 

to adopt an elephant named Mutara, who had recently been orphaned. In order to fund this project they have started ‘Pennies for Mutara’.  I was so proud of their efforts that I decided to pay them a visit today. 

While cameras were rolling the words, “Little hands can make a big difference,” were spoken.  The young boy spoke them with such conviction and confidence that I knew I had chosen the right class for the first ‘Whatever it Takes!’ local project.  They came up with some wonderful ideas and their enthusiasm was contagious.  I look forward to sharing their progress on their most recent local project with all of you! 

Are you someone who is doing ‘Whatever It Takes!’?  Are you making positive changes in your community? If so, write what you’ve been doing in the Comment section or email me at shernholm@hotmail.com.  Maybe my next visit will be to YOU!
