Wow, where does the time go? Already we are in week 4 of term 4, almost nearing the end of the year and so much more to do!!!
So far this term we have been writing poetry, beginning with limericks (which are short, sharp pieces of poetry designed for humour) Here are a couple of examples that the students have come up with so far…
There was a rabbit named Hare
Who never did nothing but glare
Then cried his mum
“I’m cross with you son,
because it’s always rude to stare!”
There was a chocolate called Crunch
Who had a friend called Sponge
But then one day
They were taken away
And both were eaten for lunch!
Your task Room 1 is to finish this limerick…(don’t forget the rhyme and rhythm patterns)
There was a young man from Norway…



There was a young man from Norway
Who cartwheeled down the hallway
He loved to shout
And jump about
When answered on his 4-way
Not my best work but Norway’s hard!
Good rhyme and rhythm Alyx!
There was a young man from Norway
Who couldn’t get though the doorway
He wasn’t to wide
Or he wasn’t to thin
He is just a typical man from Norway
Yeah I agree with Alyx its not that good but I cant think of anything that will rhyme with Norway
There was a young man from Norway
that wanted to go on Broadway
he wasn’t to dumb
but worth a tone
he is just a fat old doorway.
There was a youngman from Norway
That couldn’t fit through his doorway
He had a thumb
Stuck up his bum
So he went to the Broadway
I don’t think it is that great though. After a lot of thinking!
Shot Charlz
There was a young man from Norway
Who loved to visit Broadway
With a great big bang
It started to hang
Now he visits the gateway
There was a young man from Norway
Who run up and down the hallway
His name is Mike
He rid a bike
And he rid into a doorway
There was a young man from Norway
Who never had anything to say
He was the silent man
From the clan
And he was born in May
Mr C this was really hard I hope this fits.
there was a big doorway
who had a big hallway
his name was mat
and sat on a hat
who saw the countey norway
There was a young man from Norway
who couldnt get through the doorway
he wanted a date
his name was mate
so he just stood in the doorway
Mr. C this is so hard not much reaslict words ryme with noorway.
There was a young man from norway
who nocked his head on the doorway
he fell out of bed
nocked his head
and sang it’s a moray
thanks for the tip Mr C.
There was a young man from norway
he could not fit thourgh the doorway
he went to his house
stood on a mouse
and walked the broadway
