Isosceles, Oval and Rhombus
Listen to Lesley read her poem ...
Isosceles is a triangle cat
Not too thin and not too fat
His ears are pointy but his bottom is flat
Isosceles the triangle cat.
Oval is a rounded bee
As busy and as furry as a bee can be
Lounging in the middle of a purple daisy
Oval the rounded bee.
Rhombus is an angular dog
Pat him on the head he’ll give his tail a little wag
Take his poo home in a plastic bag
Rhombus the angular dog.
Not too thin and not too fat
His ears are pointy but his bottom is flat
Isosceles the triangle cat.
Oval is a rounded bee
As busy and as furry as a bee can be
Lounging in the middle of a purple daisy
Oval the rounded bee.
Rhombus is an angular dog
Pat him on the head he’ll give his tail a little wag
Take his poo home in a plastic bag
Rhombus the angular dog.
