Believe
Why it makes the list: Perhaps I am partial to this song this year because our students sang it for the Christmas concert, but I feel it truly captures the spirit of Christmas. No matter what is happening the rest of the year, Christmas appears to be this "wake-up call" for each of us to remember what it's like to believe in the goodness and joy all around us.
On a short side note, we gave the students their very own bells in Christmas goodie bags yesterday - it was in honor of their song and the fact that we had watched "The Polar Express" in class - and they were so grateful and cute about them. They shook their bells and said, "We believe!" They were priceless.
So, here's a question to think about - Does the bell still ring for you?
