WHERE DO ALL THE TEACHERS GO?

Where do all the teachers go

When it’s four o’clock?

Do they live in houses

And do they wash their socks?

Do they live with other people

Have they mums and dads?

And were they ever children

And were they ever bad?

Further, the child wonders by asking if they are also surrounded by people? If they also have parents and children like us to live with? Did they commit any mistakes or did anything wrong when they were children?

Do your teacher make mistakes?

Did they ever, never spell right

Did they ever make mistakes?

Were they punished in the corner

If they pinched the chocolate flakes?

Now he wants to know if they also made mistakes or were ever punished for stealing chocolates

Or doing any silly or naughty?

What do you think to be naughty is good / good/ or just cool?

Did they ever lose their hymn books

Did they ever leave their greens?

Did they scribble on the desk tops

Did they wear old dirty jeans?

Hymn books: religious books

Scribbling: draw or write something that is not readable

The tender mind is also bothered to know if their teachers also ever lost their religious books and said no to green vegetables.Did they also waste time by scribbling on tables and wear torn and old jeans.

Do you wear old torn jeans?

I’ll follow one back home today

I’ll find out what they do

Then I’ll put it in a poem

That they can read to you.

To overcome his curiosity the child decides to follow or spy his teacher on his way home after school. Once he is clear about everything, he would also like to compose or write a poem about it and thinks that the teacher would read that poem to his students.

Have you ever visited your teacher's house?
