(To the rhythm of "Green Eggs and Ham")

 

Do you like these IEPs?
 I do not like these IEPs
 I do not like them, Geez Louise
 We test, we check,
 We plan, we meet
 But nothing ever seems complete.

 Would you, could you like the form?

 I do not like the form I see
 Not page 1, not 2, not 3.
 Another change,
 A brand new box,
 I think we all
 Have lost our rocks.

 Could you all meet here or there?

 We could not all meet here or there
 We cannot all fit anywhere!
 Not in a room
 Not in the hall
 There seems to be no space at all.

 Would you, could you meet again?

 I cannot meet again next week
 No lunch, no prep
 Please hear me speak
 No, not at dusk. No, not at dawn
 At 4 p.m. I should be gone

 Could you hear while I speak out?
 Would you write the words they spout?

 I could not hear, I could not write
 This does not need to be a fight
 Sign here, date there
 Mark this, check that
 Beware the student's advocate

 You do not like them
 So you say
 Try again, try again!
 And you may

 If you will let me be
 I will try again
 You'll see

 Say!

 I almost like these IEP's!
 I think I'll write six thousand three
 And I will practice day and night
 Until they say
 'You've got it right!'
