For most children, after a long summer vacation, going back to school is hard.
One teacher in Illinois, was trying to make his students excited about coming back to school by recording a special rap song for them.
Instead of sending out the standard “Welcome Back” letter, the teacher, Dwayne Reed, send out a rap song with a video to his 4th grade students.
Reed, who is a first year teacher at Jane Stenson Elementary School in Chicago, expects his students to work hard, but he wants to make learning fun.
Reed created a website, where kids can download his song. His rap video was posted to YouTube, where it went viral.
