Poems
Student 1: My poem is called 'Why Oh Why' Why do I have to clean my room when I would rather play? The crayons scattered on the floor are hardly in the way. I almost never trip upon my basketball or drums, And I don't pay attention to cake and cookie crumbs! Why do I have to clean my room? I think my room looks nice. There's pizza in the corner, but it's only half a slice. I'm not at all worried about the gravy on the chair, My piles of model planes and trains, my stacks of underwear! I will admit some bits of clay are sticking to the wall. I hardly even notice them and do not mind at all. Under my bed there's just a wedge of last weeks apple pie, And yet I have to clean my room... I simply don't know why! Student 2: My poem is called Wrestling I like wrestling with Herbie because He's my best friend We poke each other (but not very hard) And punch each other (but not very hard) And roll on the grass And pretend to have fights Just to make our sisters scream But sometimes if he hits too much And it hurts I get mad And I punch him back As hard as I can And then we are both crying And going into our houses And slamming our back doors on each other But the next day, if it's sunny We come out into our yards And grin at each other And sometimes he gives me an apple Or I give him a cookie and Then we start wrestling again Student 3: This poem is about a boy who lives in Causeway Bay. I live in the city in a street; It is crowded with traffic and feet; There are buses and motors and trams; I wish there were meadows and lambs. The buildings all stand in a row, There is smoke everywhere that I go. I don't like the noises I hear, I wish there were woods very near. There is only one thing that I love, And that is the sky far above, There is plenty of room in the blue For castles of clouds and me, too! Student 4: This poem is about a girl who lives in a small village on Lantau Island. My home is a house near a wood I'd live a street if I could! The lanes are so quiet, oh, dear! I do wish that someone lived near. There is no one to play with at all, The trees are so high and so tall; And I should be lonely for hours, Were it not for the birds and the flowers. I wish that I lived in the city, To see all the trams going down, A twinkling street that is bright, With wonderful colours, at night! Student 5: This poem is called The Wind Who has seen the wind? Neither I nor you: But when the leaves hang trembling The wind is passing thro' Who has seen the wind? Neither you nor I: But when the trees bow down their heads The wind is passing by. Everyone together: Our last poem is called Rainbow Rainbow, rainbow in the sky, I look at your and wonder why, Your colours never run or smear, And how you so suddenly appear, Beautiful, colourful and bright, Then slowly fade away from sight.

Blowing Bubbles
Students should memorise the song and make actions/a dance for the lines.

Im forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air. They fly so high, Nearly touch the sky. Then like my dreams they fade and die. I can see them flating, They flat everywhere. Im forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air. Im forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air. See how they shine Rising all the time. Then when they stop, they fall and pop. I can see them floating, They float everywhere. Im forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air.

Poems
Student 1: This poem is called Betty eats spaghetti When Betty eats spaghetti, She slurps, she slurps, slurps, And when shes finished slurping, She burps, she burps, she burps Student 2: This poem is called Pretty shell Tell me your secrets, pretty shell, I will promise not to tell! Humming, humming, soft and lowAll about the sea I know. You are. Murmuring I think, Of the sea-weeds, green and pink, Of the tiny baby shells Where the mother mermaid dwells Pretty shell, I, m waiting here, Come, and whisper in my ear. Student 3: This poem is called If If all the seas were one sea, What a great sea that would be! If all the trees were one tree, What a great tree that would be! If all the axes were one axe, What a great axe that would be! If all the men were one man, What a great man he would be! And if the great man took the great axe, And cut down the great tree, And let it fall into the great sea, What a great splash-splash that would be! Student 4: This poem is called Your nose Be glad your nose is on your face, not pasted on some other place, for if it were where it is not, you might dislike your nose a lot. Imagine if your precious nose were sandwiched in between your toes, that clearly would not be a treat, for you'd be forced to smell your feet. Your nose would be a source of dread were it attached atop your head, it soon would drive you to despair, forever tickled by your hair. Within your ear, your nose would be an absolute catastrophe, for when you were obliged to sneeze, your brain would rattle from the breeze. Your nose, instead, through thick and thin, remains between your eyes and chin, not pasted on some other place-be glad your nose is on your face! Student 5: This poem is called New kid There's a new kid on the block, and boy, that kid is tough, that new kid punches hard, that new kid plays real rough, that new kid's big and strong, with muscles everywhere, that new kid tweaked my arm, that new kid pulled my hair. That new kid likes to fight, and picks on all the guys, that new kid scares me some, (that new kid's twice my size), that new kid stomped my toes, that new kid swiped my ball, that new kid's really bad, I don't care for her at all. All students together: Our poem is called Big and little waves There are big waves and little waves, Green waves and blue, Waves you can jump over, Waves you dive through Waves that rise up Like a great water wall Waves that swell softly And don't break at all, Waves that can whisper, Waves that can roar And tiny waves that run at you Playing on the shore.

1 Student: Hello, this is a very famous song we know by The Beatles. It is called A Yellow Submarine

In the town where I was born, Lived a man who sailed to sea, And he told us of his life, In the land of submarines, So we sailed on to the sun, Till we found the sea of green, And we lived under the waves, In our yellow submarine, We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine, We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine. All our friends are all aboard, Many more of them live next door, And the band begins to play. (Trumpets play) We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine, We all live a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine. We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine, We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine.
