Today, Primary 5 have been reading and writing limericks. We enjoyed reading the poems written by the old Primary 5s who are now in Primary 6. Limericks are five line poems that usually have a funny ending. The first, second and fifth lines rhyme, as do the third and fourth in the form AABBA.
We hope you enjoy reading our poems!
