All children love their little piggies, so
here is an extension of the traditional rhyme where you can reinforce ordinals
at the same time.
The
first little pig went to the market.
The
second little pig stayed home.
The
third little pig had roast beef.
The
fourth little pig had none.
The
fifth little pig cried, “Wee wee wee” all the way home.
The
sixth little pig ate some pizza.
The
seventh little pig ate a pear.
The
eighth little pig had spaghetti.
The
ninth little pig’s plate was bare.
The
tenth little pig cried, “Wee wee wee, I will share!”
Glue pig faces to jumbo craft sticks. Write the ordinals at the bottom and use as you say the rhyme.
