About this chapter
Lines 1–2 — we do not fall. “Together we stand, strong and tall, / Helping each other, we never fall.” A team standing together is like a tall, strong wall. When friends hold each other up, nobody falls down. Lines 3–4 — teamwork is powerful. “Cheering aloud, we shout and sing, / Teamwork can overcome anything.” The team cheers, shouts and sings. Working together can beat any problem. Lines 5–6 — win or lose, we share. “Win or lose, we always share, / Our bond of trust is always there.” A real team shares the joy of winning and the sadness of losing. Their trust does not break. Lines 7–8 — joined hands bring the goal near. “With each hand joined, the goal is near, / Team spirit fills the air with cheer.” When every hand joins in, the work is soon done, and everyone feels happy.
