Bell to Bell Blues by Annie Garretson
You can’t make me I don’t want to I ain’t goin’ anymore
With bell to bell instructionSchool is nothin’ but a chore
All day long there we are focusedOn the objective on the board
Drill and practice to get to proficientTake a test and then it’s scored
My CSAP scores aren’t lookin’
like I’ll make my AYP,Despite the interventions, RTI and LMB.
Doubt that I can manage even one more strategy;Don’t make me go. (Break)
I said, “Mom, I got a problem…Seems that I cannot make the grade,And I’ve been missing my time at recessSince the principal began this crusade.And though I’ve been working up to my potentialThere are goals there I can’t quite reach.”She replied, “Honey, you know I’m so sorry,But you’ve got to go now ‘cause you’ve got to teach!”

implement immediately in your room• 3. What NOT to do• 4.Your own experience with a student
