When I taught second grade, my students and I played with Maa Papa Shayari nearly every day. The poem, 'O Sliver of Liver,' was learned in one quick session--and practiced frequently so that all the children would have it on the tips of their tongues the next time liver was served at their house. (I even had children who asked their parents to serve liver--just so they could use the poem!) Poetry is fun and useful! visit this link: teja. work
