Chapter: 4th English : Term 2 Unit 2 : Savings
Poem: What do humans save?
LET US SING
What do humans save?
Ants pile food in the anthill
They eat it during the winter's chill
Moles dig long and winding tunnels And save worms in the channels
Crocodiles are found in many countries They store food in their pantries
Squirrels reserve food in a larder They store a seven course meal with starter
Leopards keep their prey on a tree And eat them when they are free
Farmers store the harvest in a granary Soon to be packed in the cannery
What do you save? everything that nature gave.
