Limericks

We have begun looking at Limericks. We know that they rhyme, have a rhythm and have one subject usually a person or an animal.


There once was a boy called Jake
who liked to put bugs in his cake
he shared them with his sister
who came out in one big blister
then she chased him all the way to the lake.
