Robber Cat

Sly old robber Fattyface
Has magnets on her paws
For opening kitchen cupboards
And refrigerator doors.

She robs a house, then vanishes.
All the owner sees
Are pawprints in the butter
And toothmarks in the cheese.


Here's another poem!

Reading

When you are reading each night to your child or children since we have been focussing on inferring ask them how the character is feeling (the feelings may change throughout the text).

Spaghetti

Spaghetti
Spaghetti is loopy,
Spaghetti is droopy.
It's floppy
and ploppy
and sloppy
and gloppy.
It dribbles and dangles
and gets into tangles.
 Is there some more in the pot?
I like it a lot!

 Pauline Cartwright

 I popped into school today and found this poem in a School Journal - Part 1 Number 4 2001.
