A Teacher’s Teaching

Minds are awandering, fluttering, thinking; a teacher’s teaching
The head of the room writing, scribbling; a teacher’s teaching
Children sitting, pondering, thinking; a teacher’s teaching
Books opening, books closing, some other kid’s pocket, Jimmy is nosing; a teacher’s teaching
We’ve learned everything from our teacher’s teaching
Now our teacher is leaving
Up in eighth grade a teacher’s teaching; but nothing like 6th grade’s teacher’s teaching
