A rhyme School from one to ten
Back to school, back to school!
One yellow backpack, it’s really cool, Two new notebooks, just for me And new blue pencils… one, two, three.
Talking to my four best friends, I show them my five coloured pens. I’ve got six biscuits, what a treat! And seven grapes for me to eat.
