Lessons in Carols


No part of today’s Wednesday email has any educational value. It is purely for silliness and fun. Feel free to sing the songs to the original tunes in your head – or out loud. Hey. It’s almost Winter Break. You can get a little squirrelly too. The kids sure are



“O Come-On Vacation”
(to be sung to “O Come All Ye Faithful”)
O, Come-on, Vacation
Joyful and triumphant
O, come Me, o come Me
To Wi-iii-nter Break!

Come and sleep in and
Ignore all the email
O come let us adore it
O come let us adore it
O come let us adore ii-it
Wi-ii-nter Break!

Rudoloph The Tired Teacher
(To be sung to “Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer”)
You know Jayden and Aiden and Kevin and Jackson,
Lilly and Abbey and Diamond and Addison
But do you recallllllll
The most tired teacher of all?

Rudolph the tired teacher
Had a very crazy class
And if you ever saw it
You would only see few pass

All of the other teachers
Seemed to give exams with ease
Kids never let poor Rudolph
Get through any review games!

Then one cool December Day
Teacher had to say
(“No! No! No!”)
“Children, I know you’re so bright!
Won’t you study just tonight?”

Then how the children loved him
And they shouted out with glee
(gucci!!!)
“Rudolph the tired teacher
You taught me some his-to-reeee!”

God Rest Ye Merry Teachers
(sung to “God Rest Ye  Mrry Gentlemen”)
God rest ye merry teachers
Let none get in the way
Remember our vacation
Starts on Saturday.....
To save us all from stress and kids
When we get to go away
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy!

Teacher Song
(sung to Adam Sandler’s “Chanukah Song”)
When you feel like the only adult in town
Who can’t leave work earl-yyyyy
Here’s a list of people who were teachers
Just like you and me

Alexander Graham Bell taught the sophmore-ahs
So did Sting, Robert Frost, and the late LBJ-ah

Guess who eats together in the teachers’ lunchroom?
Jon Hamm from Mad Men and Art Garfunkel
Sheryl Crow was a teacher, Gene Simmons, too
Put them together, what a musical teacher too!

You don’t need long lunches or expensive, fancy bree
Cause you can empathize with Steven King and Mr. T -- both teachers

Shut down your gradebook
Close your textbook too
Former president Barak Obama-kah
Was a professor too.


OJ Simpson?
Not a teacher (!!)
But guess who was? Harry Potter author JK Rowling!
We got Sylvester Stallone and author Dan Brown
Billy Crystal was a teacher -- told kids to calm down!

Tell your friend Veronica
It’s time for vacation-akah
I hope I get a harmonicah
Oh this lovely vacation-akah
So drink your water-tonic-akah
And rest while you yawn-akah
If you really really wannakah
Have a happy happy happy vacation-akah!





Have a wonderful, joyful, restful break!

See you in the new year!
-Tracy
