...and other timewasting treats---My ss loved these things..

Denise sees the fleece,
Denise sees the fleas.
At least Denise could sneeze
and feed and freeze the fleas.

Purple Paper People.

A canner exceedingly canny,
one day remarked to his Granny,
"A canner can can anything he can can,
but a canner can't can a can, can he?"

A tutor who tooted the flute
was tuting two tooters to toot.
Said the tooters to the tutor,
"Is it harder to toot
or to tutor two tooters to toot?"

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck?

Learn it! Say it really fast without any mistakes.

Chinese students always add "a" after "d" and "K" so they can rarely say it without mistakes.

Challenge them to a contest. Any student that can say it faster than you without mistake gets a free lunch. This gets them motivated.

In 4 years I have only bought three free lunches out of 1,000+ students.

Getting Japanese people to say "yellow lorry, red lorry" really quickly repeatedly is always good for a cheap laugh...

Round the rugged rock the ragged rascal ran.

Red bulb, blue bulb, red bulb, blue bulb.

Red blood, black blood, red blood, black blood.

Six sick sheiks' sixth sick sheep.

Betty Botter bought some butter,
"But," she said, "this butter's bitter,
if I put it in my batter it will make my batter bitter,
but a bit of better butter, that would make my batter better."
So she bought a bit of butter, better than her bitter butter,
and she put it in her batter and her batter was not bitter.
So 'twas better Betty Botter bought a bit of better butter.
