Over the course of the week, the ILE students were given an assignment to write a limerick (AABBA rhythm) on a historical literary or political figure It was great to see how creative the students were, as many wrote some fantastic pieces. However, Mariah had the winning Limerick on Samuel Beckett. Samuel Beckett threw some bit fits; Hated Ireland more than cold grits. He felt this strong fire For his native Eire, Because it was controlled by darn Brits. She won a book on Irish limericks and a collection of WB Yeats’ Poems. Congratulations, Mariah! You are a star!
