My Poems

Today for my home work I wrote poems. Hope use enjoy them! Bye!

My Limerick Poem: (Topic) Dogs
My dog loved to climb logs
Me and my family named him Pog
People say he’s cute
And some just put him on mute
But now he’s gone I will have no dog


My Limerick Poem: (Topic) My Dad
My dad likes to play
Sometimes he can complain
But I love him to bits
Even When he tells me sit!
But he’s my dad so I can’t complain!

My mum is pretty
She is a really good cook
That’s why I love her

This morning all classes went to the hall to find out what the big surprise was. When all classes had been seaton it was time to find out what the surprise was. I was so excited so I sat quietly and watched Miss Nua as she let go of the curtain. When she let go of the curtain I saw 3 teachers who were standing there and wearing pig hats. The 3 teachers were Mrs Manuyag, Mrs Sharma and Mrs Barlow. They showed us a little play of the 3 little pigs based on our inquiry topic "Reading for pleasure, Writing for leisure". I really enjoyed the show also I really enjoyed watching the big bad wolf (Mrs. Kelly). I really enjoyed the show and hope you did to.
