Poems

The aim of teaching poetry to children is to cultivate in them an admiration for the words, sounds and meaning of sentences. Therefore, it is essential to select poems that nurture their intellect.

It is important to select poems that are lively, exciting and appealing to children. Keep in mind that poems should emphasise the sounds of language and stimulate word play. Also, teach your child a positive approach so that he or she does not feel afraid to experiment with poetry.

Underface

Underneath my outside face
There's a face that none can see.
A little less smiley,
A little less sure,
But a whole lot more like me

Now we are six

When I was One,
I had just begun.
When I was Two,
I was nearly new.
When I was Three
I was hardly me.
When I was Four,
I was not much more.
When I was Five,
I was just alive.
But now I am Six,
I'm as clever as clever,
So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.

Sping

Sping is here

Spring is here.

Goodbye, snow

Flowers grow.

Birds and bees

leaves on trees.

Hello, spring

Hello, spring

Pumpkins

I see pumpkins large

I see pumpking small

I see pumpkins short

I see pumpkins tall

I see pumpkins orange

I see pumpkins green

Just what we need 

for fall and halloween

Snowball

I made myself a snowball
As perfect as could be.
I thought I'd keep it as a pet
And let it sleep with me.
I made it some pajamas
And a pillow for its head.
Then last night it ran away,
But first it wet the bed.
