The dish ran away with the spoon

The cow looked up at the moon

She mooooed unaware

That the spoon dished with flare

Stating: ‘plating that fast, gosh, beware!’

The dish winked back in delight

Abandoned the spoon’s mid-air flight

So the spoon flicked a fit; pulled up with a spit

And the cow turned to chops, in fright

Teacher Notes by Jeanie Axton

Here is another copy of the quote by Mem Fox from Monday and a link underneath to famous Nursery Rhymes. How about this week you expose your students to Nursery Rhymes?  See who can memorise them quickly. Look at the rhyming patterns that are repeated in these old time favourites. If you can remember tell them your favourite as a child and Why?

Have fun exploring Nursery Rhymes
