Here is a fun poem about December. It is a limerick. Use it with your students and teach them how to make up others. Some would be good for the message on holiday cards. Others could be for memory skills. Still others could help with teaching about winter and some of the nice things that people do together at that time. All can be part of a great lesson in writing poetry.

There once was a month named December.

The month that all children remember.

Good wishes we send

Without any end

As soon as it passes November.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and most important of all have an absolutely wonderful day!
