Note Worthy Poem

I found this little poem over at Er-u-di-tion and found it to be a note worthy tidbit to post.

HELP!!!!!

I’m trying hard to read

But what’s a kid to do

When there’s a NO and a GO and a SO and a HO

And then there’s a word like TO?

Reading BONE and CONE and LONE and TONE

Can almost be kind of fun

But I get upset when I have to believe

That D-O-N-E spells DONE!

It’s plain to see a kid like me

Sure needs a helping hand.

No matter how much I really try

I just don’t understand.

I’m trying hard to learn to read.

Somehow that’s what I’ll do.

But for now if you’ll just read to me

Someday I’ll read to you!
