Oprah's staff at Harpo Studio kicked off her show's 24th season with a "flash mob" dance to the Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling". The video of this performance is sorta irrelevant but you should see it anyway because it's fun:"I Gotta Feeling"

On a more relevant note, the students and staff of the Ocoee Middle School in Florida did a parody of the original "flash mob" dance called "Gotta Keep Reading". Check it out. You'll love it... and maybe your kids will too.

I did!

This is a PERFECT illustration to support the sermon I often preach about KNOWING enough pop culture to engage our students in ways that make sense to THEM, not just US.  Not necessarily LOVING it, just KNOWING it.

Enjoy:  GOTTA KEEP READING
