LIMERICKS

A limerick is a well-known verse invented in Ireland about a hunded years ago. It is a short, funny poem that tells a little story.It has five lines. Lines 1,2,5 rhyme and usually have three beats. Lines 3,4 rhyme a nd often have two beats.

                              There was once a girl from Troy
                               She would always try to annoy
                               She looked like a moose
                               She laughed like a goose
                               Her silliness always caught a boy.

The rhyming pattern as you can see is:

AABBA   

These are some of the  limericks some of my students in 1st.D have written.


She was a girl from Alcorcón
She was eating pop-corn
She looked like an elephant
but she was elegant.
However, her tongue was very long.


Written by:Vanessa,Sara,Alvaro, Pedro.




There is a little girl from Spain
she always eats brains.
She looks like a witch
and she always has stitch.
But she likes singing in the rain.

Written by: Alberto. Itziar, Alejandro and Rubén.
