Sound poems





IN THE CLASSROOM


Pencil cases zipping,
Stomping feet,
Children whispering,
Printer whirring,
Slippers flopping,
Teacher singing,
It's a busy busy classroom!


Sibeal Hanrahan
IN THE SWIMMING POOL.


Children splashing,
Water crashing,
Instructor calling,
Grownups chatting,
Infants paddling,
Whistle blowing,
IT'S SWIM TIME!


Ita O'Connor
IN THE ZOO

Elephants yelling,
Monkey chattering,
Snake hissing,
Lion roaring,
Tigers growling,
Kangaroo hopping,
It is fun at the zoo!

SOUNDS ON THE FARM

Horses neighing,
Sheep baaing,
Ducks quacking,
Hens clucking,
Pigs snorting,
Bulls stomping,
It is fun on the farm!


Evanne Fahy
IN THE SCHOOLYARD

Birds singing,
Cars zooming,
Ball bouncing,
Children stomping,
Teacher calling,
Stones clashing,
Skipping rope whooshing,
Its playtime!
