Festa dei nonni, poesie per scuola primaria in inglese
Ecco tre poesie in lingua inglese per i bambini delle elementari da studiare in occasione della Festa dei nonni.
La Festa dei nonni sta per arrivare e una bella poesia recitata dai nipotini è un bel regalo. Se però i bambini sono alla scuola primaria, potrebbero misurarsi con una lingua straniera, per esempio l’inglese. Ecco quindi due tre piccole poesie, una cortissima e molto facile, per fare amicizia anche con un idioma con cui abbiamo poca familiarità.
Granny di Grace Nichols
Granny Granny
please comb my hair
you always take your time
you always take such care.
You put me to sit on a cushion
between your knees
you rub a little coconut oil
parting gentle as a breeze.
Mummy Mummy
she’s always in a hurry – hurry rush
she pulls my hair
sometimes she tugs.
But Granny
you have all the time in the world
and when you’re finished
you always turn my head and say “Now who’s a nice girl.”
Grandparents day
Grandparents are meant for kisses and hugs,
For watching rainbows and catching bugs.
For baking all of your favorite things.
For books to read and songs to sing.
A Poem
From early in the morning,
Until I go to sleep each day,
I know my grandparents love me,
In a very special way.
Sometimes it’s tea and crackers,
Sometimes a walk in the park,
Sometimes it’s just a hug when I’m scared and in the dark.
I love to hear their stories,
About the past and where they’re from,
And I know their hearts are filled for me,
With never ending love.
