Over the last week, we have be learning about Limerick Poems. Do you know what a Limerick poem is? We looked up some examples from this website about Pirates that had lots of good information and activities to do. Here is what we came up with as a class.

He tried to go to sleep
But was hungry for sheep
And he ran a hundred meters
