The Classroom
In the classroom the learning begins
From the second you walk in
Science, math, language arts, too
Don't forget it all starts at homeroom
Learning new words from day to day
Some of these words are hard to say
Posters and flags all around the room
Designed to help and guide you
In the classroom the learning begins
Right from the second you walk in.
