Ball Chant

Woot, woot! Come one, Come all!

everybody grab a ball!

 

Volley, volley, volleyball!

What do you do with a volleyball

I bump the ball with my arms outstretched

and fingers intertwined.

 

Basket, basket basketball!

What do you do with a basketball?

I hoist the ball above my head and

shoot it in the hoop.

 

Tennis, tennis, tennis ball!

What do you do with a tennis ball?

I whack the ball and lob it high

and deep onto the court.

 

Golf, golf, golf ball!

What do you do with a golf ball?

I swing my club and putt the ball

along along the rolling green. 

 

A ball is round and never ends. 

But this is the end of our chant, my friends

You might want to write about sports.

Try writing a poem of your own! You might want to write about sports, specifically about the types of sticks that we use as equipment to play different types of sports, like a lacrosse stick or a golf club, or a hockey stick, or a baseball bat. Or perhaps you might want to write about something completely different. Maybe you might want to try your hand at writing a poem about different kinds of light. Sunlight and moonlight and starlight and a nightlight, or a flashlight. So now it's your turn to write a poem of your own and see what you can come up with.

Happy poem making everyone!
