Ideas for music in the elementary gymnasium

I have grades K - 2 covered.

For grades 3 - 5 I usually choose songs from the radio with no cuss words, where they are not talking about drugs, violence or sex. These days its hard to find CLEAN upbeat songs you can run to etc.

Any ideas of some good ones that are generally new?

Thanks in advance!

what about some 70's dance music??

There is also a cd of sports music I believe jock jams it's called?? Maybe there are some good songs on there you can use..

Good luck with your new school year!

Drews Party Songs is a cd that I love and use with my class - it has the Chicken Dance, Jailhouse rock, YMCA, Hands Up, I will Survive, etc. Lots of great, child-appropriate dance songs
