The Day You Begin
VI:
Whether I’m watching TV, dancing, singing
Playing soccer out on the field
I could be Segway riding feel like I’m flying
I must admit I got some skills
Hook:
I am strong, I am Big
Even if you just see a little kid
I am brave I stand tall
And every day I am grateful for it all
On Your Own

About the Book
The Day You Begin
Written By Jacqueline Woodson
When Tanisha spills grape juice all over her new dress, her classmate contemplates how to make her feel better and what it means to be kind. From asking the new girl to play to standing up for someone being bullied, this moving and thoughtful story explores what a child can do to be kind, and how each act, big or small, can make a difference–or at least help a friend.

Hello Dearborn Park students. I’m so very excited to be working at this amazing school. We have a unique opportunity to create something as a team. This is one of my favorite books of poetry I’ve read. Let’s do this.
