Student Created Limericks 

The fourth graders have been reading and composing limericks.  
Here are a few samples written by our students.
Click the links below each limerick to view a printable version.
There once was a boy named Bill
He jumped off a very steep hill
He did a big flip
And broke his hip
And that was the end of Bill.
                           By Collan

                                                                              A Limerick by Collan

There once was a monkey named Trey
Who loved to lots of hay
So he moved to a farm
Where he caused much alarm
‘til the farmer chased him away
                               By Maggie

                                                                            A Limerick by Maggie

There once was a cat named Kerry
She ate a poisoned berry
Then she went cuckoo
And said “boo-hoo”
And that was the end of Kerry
                             By Jasmin

                                                                             A Limerick by Jasmin


There once was a dog named Kitty
Who thought she was so pretty
She wasn’t very tall
She was exceedingly small
That’s why they call her Itty Bitty
                                     By Lilly

                                                                                 A Limerick by Lilly

There once was a boy name Jim
Who never learned to swim
When he fell in the lake
Oh what a mistake!
That was the last sight of Jim.
                              By Lewis

                                                                               A Limerick by Lewis

There once was a boy named Roy
Though cats he seemed to annoy
He pulled on their tails
They scratched with their nails
And that was the end of Roy.
                            By Allysia

                                                                              A Limerick by Allysia
