Hammer Grammar - whilst swimming

You can begin

Thinking English

Whilst in the gym

Or whilst you swim

Whilst in the gym

Or swimming pool

You can repeat

Some simple rules

In the mirror

When in the gym

He looks at me

I look at him

She looks at her

Notes what she saw

Of what they did

And what they wore

While by mirrors

Keep fit or dance

Watch the teacher

Copy, one glance

It's so simple

My dearest friends

The subject starts

The object ends

I want to learn

I need a guide

A guide outside

A guide inside

The teacher's job's

To help you start

Get you going

To give you heart

But why should I?

Why should I try?

Must keep alert

Or I might die!

Don't fear, my dear

I'm glad you ask

'cos whilst I swim

I multi-task

Avoid deep water

Because my friend

I swim only

In the shallow end

Grammar lessons?

Because I think

Moving forward

Whilst in 'the drink'

In the drink is

A metaphor

Opens your mind

Opens a door

Similes use as 

Same as or like

I swim and learn

Fast, like I bike 

Alliteration's

Our last great thought

Remember what

Your teacher taught

Angela reading a poem, Be busy as a bee.

You just repeat

The first letter

Make your sentence

Sound much better

Like the sunlight

Twisting, turning.

Swimming slowly

Lovely learning.
