Limericks

a limerick is a humorous five-line poem that rhymes. In class we are currently making our own here are some examples:

There once was a child in Spain,
Who loved to play in the rain.
One day he had a slip,
And broke his hip,
Now he is in serious pain.

I need a front door for my hall,
The replacement I bought was too tall.
So I hacked it and chopped it,
And carefully lopped it,
And now the dumb thing is too small.

  1. Hi there!

    My name is Matilda and I am a blog commenter for the Summer Learning Journey this year! I’ve noticed that you haven’t done any of the activities yet. Our finish date is the 24th of January but there is still time to give it a go and start gaining some points!

    What amazing limericks you wrote! I really enjoyed them! I think that the second one was my favourite! How did you think of such an interesting theme for your limerick?

    The Summer Learning Journey has heaps of activities to choose from! Here is the link. Have a look through and find some activities you like the looks of. I’m looking forward to seeing which ones you choose! (There is an activity where you get to write your own poem! I bet you'd be good at that one!)

    Remember if you have any questions all you have to do is ask!

    Can’t wait to hear from you!

    Matilda :)
