Limerick poem
Once I went to a safari
In my big red Ferrari
It was fun
And I ate a bun
Saw a girl in a sari!
Loving
Amazing
Yummy lunch
Super cool
Talk circles
Oh my gosh its epic
Noisy children
Smiley

Handwriting
Open space
Obstacle course
Learning
Once there was a girl called Ella
who went to ballet with her friend Bella
When they went to class
They ate there snack fast
And at the end
They went for a bend
Ella ran home
Because she was going to Rome
There was a young man named Fred
Who got hit by a loaf of bread
At the baker’s shop
He fell with a drop
And had a very sore head
There was young girl named Molly
Who unusually lived in a trolley
She looked at a dog
Fell in a bog
And ended up really jolly
There was a young man named Bruce
Who was really allergic to juice
He rolled in a bog
Looked at a hog
And then got hit by a moose
My poem is about Minecraft
Mining
In different worlds
Never getting bored
Every Minecraft day is different
Crafting new things
Redstone is hard to do
After dying you can respawn
Fun to play
The nether is dangerous
