Paul told ABC News that her students practiced the song five minutes per day over a two-week period before she filmed the performance.
"It's just something out of the box that the kids can relate to," she said. "The kids are looking for something that’s fun and enjoyable and adding a little song or dance makes [the lesson] more memorable for them."
It makes it more memorable for us, too. Thanks for the free lesson, Ms. Paul.
