Limericks

A limerick usually has 5 lines.  Lines 1, 2, and five all rhyme and they have the same number of syllables.  Lines 3 and 4 rhyme and they have the number of syllables.  Here are some of our limericks.  See if you can clap out the syllables.

I went to school

that was really cool

because the school pool

was open all day.

I went to choir last night

and I sounded really nice

and we sat on the edge of the row

after I was very cold and tired

and we home to bed.
