Have a Laugh at our Limericks
3rd and 4th class learnt all about Limerick's in English class this week. We learnt about how to structure a Limerick and looked at some examples. Then we had a go at writing our own. Have a read and a giggle at some of our Limericks below.
There once was a dragon from Peru,
Who got his head stuck in a shoe,
He kept breathing fire,
The temperature got higher,
And now his face is black and blue.

He looked like a massive cherry,
He went to the shops,
And ate some Pork Chops,
And now he's the size of Kerry.

Who's legs were awfully hairy,
She wore a long skirt,
