Class Five: A poem- I wanted to Do

I Wanted to Do
-Richard Le Gallienne

I meant to do my work today-
But a brown bird sang in the apple-tree,
And a butterfly flitted across the field,
And all the leaves were calling me.

And the wind sighing over the land,
Tossing the grasses to and fro,
And a rainbow held out its shining hand-
So what could I do but laugh and go?

Class Five: Some Rhymes

Some Rhymes

 

Ding Dong Bell

Pussy's in the well.

Who put her in?

Little Tommy thin.

Who put her out?

Little Tommy stout.

Class Three: A poem- My Mother

My Mother

 

I know a face,

A lovely face

So full of beauty,

As of grace.

 

That face can be

Compared to no other

That lovely lady

Is my beloved mother.

Class Three: Poem- Homes

Homes

 

A bird lives in a nest,

A snake in a hole.

We live in a house,

A goldfish in a bowl.

 

Class Three: Rhyme- Days of months

Days of months

 

Thirty days has September,

April, June and November.

All the rest have thirty-one,

Not February, it's a different one.

It has twenty-eight, that's fine,

A Leap Year makes it twenty-nine.

Class Three Rhyme-Days and months

Days of the week

 

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday too,

Wednesday, Thursday just for you,

Friday, Saturday, that's the end.

Now let's say those days again!

 

Every Week

 

Every week has seven days,

See how many your friends can say

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,

Thursday

Friday and Saturday

What is the day today?

Class Three: Rhyme- Hickety Pickety

Hickety Pickety

Hickety Pickety, my black hen,
She lays eggs for gentlemen;
Sometimes nine and sometimes ten,
Hickety Pickety, my black hen.
