ALL CHANGE

By Josie Whitehead

Lesson Plan etc:-  HERE

All Change

We went to visit Aunty
      Who lives in Timbuktu
But we took the train to Dover –
     Oh now what must we do?

​

So we made a big decision -
      Perhaps you’ll find it strange –
And decided that the thing to do
       Was everyone:

 

                  'ALL CHANGE!'​

 

We went to visit Grandma
     Who lived beside the sea,
But we took the train to London
      And my brother said to me:

​

"We must hire a witch’s broomstick," –
      Perhaps you’ll find it strange –
So we left the train at London 
      When Frankie said:

 

                 'ALL CHANGE!'

​

We went to visit your school 
      But got on the wrong bus.
The driver said: "My goodness!
      You’re making such a fuss!"

​

Oh, we’ve missed our school appointment,
      So a new day we’ll arrange.
So your teacher’s made another date 
       And clearly wrote:

 

                'ALL CHANGE'!'​
