This year, Children at the Fort are "Setting the Course for the Treasure of Knowledge!" During the summer, I changed the lyrics to "Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me," to go along with our school theme. If you have ever ridden "Pirate's of the Caribbean" at Disney, then you know the song I am talking about. Here are the lyrics. Have your child practice articulation with the words while they clap a steady beat. Also, don't forget to sing using your best swashbuckling pirate voice! ARRGGHH!!!!
"Yo Ho, Yo Ho, the Fort's the Place for Me"
We read and we write, and try really hard.
We value our success!
We check all our work with focus and care
'Cause that's what pirates do best!
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, the Fort's the Place for me!
We follow the rules, in class or at play
With true integrity.
We love one another as a sister and brother
'Cause we're a big family!
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, the Fort's the place for me!
We'll read everyday and study our facts
To score high on all tests.
The treasure is learning and if we work hard,
We'll ride above all the rest!
We'll listen to teachers, no rascals are we!
Yes ma'am, no sir, AHOY!
We're here to have fun, now our journey's begun
Coming to school is a joy!
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, the Fort's the place for me!
So here on our ship, we'll stay on our course
Smooth sailing on our boat!
Encourage each other and impress your mother
And keep your classmates a float!
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, the Fort's the place for me!
