Happy Valentine’s Day to you all – moreover, happy half

children to go on mathletics/mathseeds. Participation over the past two months
has been poor, as a whole.

The

Wibbly snakes, wobbly

Lots of little
bobbly snakes.
White snakes, black

Creeping behind your
back snakes.
Silent snakes,
giggly snakes,
Very very wiggly
snakes.
Bad snakes, dumb

Dad and mum snakes.
White snakes, bite
snakes,
Slither up the light
snakes.
Silent snakes,
rattle snakes,
Lots of little
battle snakes.
Thin snakes, fat
snakes,
Find them in your
hat snakes.
King snakes, mini
snakes,
Very very silly
snakes.
Hungry snakes, wild
snakes,
Steal a little child
snakes.
King snakes, wing

Ones that like to
sing snakes.
Smelly snakes, big belly

Eating lots of jelly
snakes.
Purple snakes, pink

Ones that like to wink
snakes.
