My dog Archie is my best friend

He is three and I am ten,

He jumps and barks,

He likes the parks

He makes me laugh

When he has a bath,

When he's happy he dances in the street

When he's bored he goes to sleep,

He likes to bring our mail

And he wiggles his little tail

He likes to eat bones and meat

Spaghetti, potatoes, cheese and fish

My dog Archie is very clever,

That is because he is the best dog ever!

Mrs Stathaki wants the children to write a poem

about their pet. This is what Chelsea, a student

in the class is writing about her dog. Listen,

read and find out: "How old is Archie?"

Write your riddle (+app I)

Have you got a favourite animal? Write about it but don't write its name. Can your classmates find out what it is?

Answer these questions:

Where does it live? (does it live in the sea, in the jungle, in a forest, in a house, on a farm?)
What does it look like? (is it big or small, has it got a tail or wings, what colour is it?)
What does it eat? (does it eat fruit, vegetables, fish or meat?)
What does it do? (does it climb trees, does it swim in the sea/in a pond, does it run in a field?)

Remember!

Archie jumps and barks, he likes the parks, he dances in the street, he goes to sleep, he wiggles his tail
