We read the famous poem about Ruby Bridges:
Mom said, "My God, what have I done?"
She spoke her heart
Ruby Bridges, she did her part
Ruby Bridges, she reflected
Ruby Bridges, we were affected
Ruby Bridges, that little child
Ruby Bridges, that world beguiled
Ruby Bridges, by a little child
Ruby Bridges, who changed the course of history
Ruby Bridges, no longer a memory but a reality
Who? "Ruby Bridges"
We then wrote our own class version
Ruby Bridges, don't be scared
Ruby Bridges, I will hold your hand
Ruby Bridges, she was kind
Ruby bridges, you helped us
Ruby Bridges, thank you for our school.
