We're all poets and we know it!

This week we have been exploring different types of poetry. What do you think?

Here are some limericks.

There was a young man called Jake,
who decided to bake a big cake.
He put it in a tin,
but then he fell in,
and no one could find him in the cake.

There was a young lady from Crewe,
who had a big bow that was blue.
The bow turned all pink,
so she rushed to the sink,
ad said that she needed the loo!

By Saskia

There was a young man called Jake,
who dreamed of eating a cake.
He ate a big pie,
and thought he would die,
but now he's as big as a steak!

By Bobby


Here are some riddles. Can you work out the answers?

A big, tall animal stomping through.
No it is not a giraffe or crocodile.
Every big step I take, I scare the small ones.
Looking around with thick grey skin.
Exciting leaves all for me.
Planting my enormous bottom on the ground.
Here and there,
Anywhere,
No mice for me,
Ticking my trunk!

 Who am I?

By Isla


Cosy bed,
Warm house,
Beaming eyes,
Pig pointy ears.
I love to play.
I hate water.
I prance and crawl around.
What am I?

By Leyla

I like hiding in the snow,
Even though I do not glow.
I live in the mountains,
Although I don't like fountains.
I run to catch my prey,
but fun it is not!

What am I?

By Zayn

I live in the African Savannah,
I like leaves but I dislike lions!
I have hooves but I run when I need to,
Lastly, I have brown spots allover.

What am I?

And, here are some Haikus.

Swimming is fun, good.
It cools you down very fast
and you can splash Dad!

By Matilda

Blossom on the trees
where blue tits chirp happily
by the shiny lake.

By Emily


I will camp outside
and go to the cinema!
Also archery!
