There once was a classroom in Clearwater,
It was much loved by my sons and my daughter(s),
They would go there each day,
Make a mess with their play,
And never clean up like they ought-er.
So, I went there to plan for our year,
And I could not believe all their gear,
It was scattered around,
Oh, the stuff that I found!
It would never come clean was my fear!
Still, I jumped in with both of my feet,
I cleaned up until it was neat,
I worked very hard,
While they played in the yard,
And now I deserve a big treat!
School will be starting in one week,
The classroom? I won’t let the kids peek,
It looks really great,
But they’ll just have to wait
“Cause if it gets messed up now, I will freak!

ReplyDeleteThat was awesome!!! It's nice to see someone's messy school room, since most of us are too chicken to show that side of ourselves. Lol!
ReplyDeleteLooks so nice and neat now. Kids sure can mess them up fast though, can't they?
