Teaching Life


Teachers always teaching

to prepare us to be the best

Chalk boards always screeching

to prepare us take the test

 

Unfortunately we suffer

Real lives become rougher

Standardized tests are an outrage

They do not improve our wage

 

Common sense is rare

Even after missing 2400 by a hare

What teachers should have us prepare

is how in the real world we should fare
