When I taught school, my students enjoyed singing songs and reciting poetry. Here’s a poem I wrote about April. I’m hoping it will be useful to all you teachers and scrapbookers out there. Please feel free to use it. Just credit the author, okay? Have fun with your kiddoes this month!
April
April came knocking at my door one day.
She said, “My dear, won’t you come out and play?
I’ve brought along playmates; we can have so much fun!”
Then she introduced her friends, one by one.
There were Raindrops and Puddles
with Splishes and Sploshes
Rainbows and Raincoats
and Muddy Galoshes.
Fluffy Chick and Soft Bunny had come along, too.
And I said right away….”Yes! I’ll come play with you!”
What a grand time we had, we played on and on.
And before I knew it, April was gone!
But she made me a promise,
and the very next day,
her sister came knocking….
and her name was May!
