Thank You Song For Teachers – Reading Writing and Rhyming [VIDEO]

All year I've been writing songs with kids. I've loved every minute of it. However, I wanted to do something special for the great teachers that I've met along the way, so here' s a little ditty for you folks too!

Disclaimer: I couldn't find a lot of pictures! Almost all of the shots are of the kids and yours truly, so I know I'm missing a lot of you in this slideshow. If you'd like to send me your mug shots, I will redo this project. Send them to Richie@wgna.com.

Here's your song - a parody of a hot new country hit by Jake Owen called "Beachin''. (Take 3 guesses what I changed the word "Beachin'" to…" ).

LYRICS To "Teachin'"

So just watchin' her blonde hair, sun burnt, stare at them, white caps rolling over

Laid back in a thrift store beach chair, droppin' limes in a Corona

Well, she looks back, yeah, she throws me a kiss, like "Honey, I sure want you."

And it's a hundred and three between her and me and only 92 in Daytona

Just watching her wipin that sweat from forehead now that the year is over

She can lay back not worrying about the common core scores were lower

She'll be glad she did get a break from the kids even though in a way it's bummer

She loves education but it's time for celebration crack a beer, my dear cuz it's summer

Hearing children whine, all the time

And they're surely not the only ones cryin
