PHONETIC CONTEST TIME OF YEAR
FALL Put on your jacket and jeans for fall, Now it’s cold to play football! Leaves turn orange, red and brown, And they all are falling down. Winter, spring, summer, fall – I like fall best of all.
AUTUMN LEAVES The leaves are dropping from the trees, Yellow, brown, and red. They patter softly like the rain – One landed on my head! But when the sleep of winter comes They cuddle down to rest; Then Mother Nature tucks them in With snow as she thinks best.
SPRING Spring is here, Summer is near, Grass is green So nice and clean. Winter, spring, summer, fall – I like spring best of all.
WINTER It’s winter now, so bundle up tight! Warm mittens and caps will be just right. Ice on the lake, snow on the ground, Time to ski and skate all around. Winter, spring, summer, fall – I like winter best of all.
SUMMER The summer sun shines hot and high. Baby birds now learn to fly. Green, green leaves and tasty fruit, All the things are so good! Winter, spring, summer, fall – I like summer best of all.
READERS’ CHOICE
SCHOOL IS OVER School is over, Oh, what fun! Lessons finished, Play begun. Who’ll run fastest, You or I? Who’ll laugh loudest? Let us try.
MICE I think mice Are rather nice. Their tails are long, Their faces are small, They haven’t any Chins at all. Their ears are pink, Their teeth are white, They run about The house at night. They nibble things They shouldn’t touch, And no one seems To like them much. But I think mice Are nice.
WHO’S IN? The door is shut fast And everyone’s out.” But people don’t know What they’re talking about! Says the fly on the wall, And the flame on the coals, And the dog on his rug, And the mice in their holes, And the kitten curled up, And the spiders that spin – “What, everyone’s out? Why, everyone’s in!”
MY FAMILY This is the father good and kind. This is the mother with gentle smile. This is brother grown so tall. This is sister always with a doll. This is baby still to grow. That is the whole family Standing in a row.
AN APPLE I have a little apple, Red and round. On a tree it is found. If you take a bite You will see Just how tasty it will be!
