Our last day of our Juniors workshop was spent catching up on old assignments. Once students were all caught up, they could enter "The Poetry Room," where we were having fun discussing rhyme scheme by writing "Riddle Poems." This is a fun poem to write as it introduces children to the concept of rhyme scheme, patterns, and meter. The AABB rhyme scheme should include lines with great clues to solve the riddle. See if you can solve these!!
This is a pet you'll want to pat,
With lots of fur it will look very fat.
It meows for dinner every night,
But feed it quickly or it will fight!
What is it?
Answer: A cat!

This big animal can be brown or black.
It will neigh, but it won't quack.
On its back you can race,
It wears shoes, but not a shoelace!
What is it?
Answer: A horse!

This season is really fun
You get to play in the sun.
The weather is warm and you can stay
Outside every single day.

This little fellow likes to jump.
This green animal has some lumps.
These creatures jump on lily pads
When they lose their tails, it is sad.

This funny feline wears a hat
His jokes are never flat.
He is very funny,
But doesn't have any money.
Who is he?
Answer: The cat in the hat!

This takes place in a vat of water,
But you wouldn't see an otter.

If you don't know how, you could choke.

Answer: Swimming!
