P6 have been writing poems in the style of poet Charles Causley’s ‘As I went down Zig Zag’. Here are some examples of our favourite stanzas:
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking two,
I saw a man bouncing
Like a purple kangaroo.
As i went down Zig Zag
The clock striking eight,
I saw a bike which ate
A sparkly chocolate cake.
By Zoe Evans
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking one
I saw a man dancing
When the party was done.
As I went down zig zag
The clock striking three
I saw an old lady drinking
Tea in the sea.
By Connor Ramsay
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking eight,
I saw a boy going
For a long skate.
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking nine,
I saw a girl singing
A nursery rhyme.
By Ellie Hamilton
