Five little Speckled Frogs
Introduction of five speckled frogs
Sat on a speckled log,
Describing the location of the frogs on a speckled log
Eating some most delicious bugs.
Detailing the activity of the frogs, eating delicious bugs
Yum! Yum!
Expression of delight over the tasty bugs
One jumped into the pool,
One frog jumps into the pool
Where it was nice and cool,
Describing the pool as a nice and cool place
Then there were four little speckled frogs
Outcome: Four frogs remaining on the log
Four little Speckled Frogs
Introduction of four speckled frogs (repetition)
Sat on a speckled log,
Restating the location of the remaining frogs
Eating some most delicious bugs.
Continuation of the frogs' activity: eating bugs
Yum! Yum!
Expressing enjoyment of the bugs once again
One jumped into the pool,
Another frog jumps into the pool
Where it was nice and cool,
Reiterating the coolness of the pool
Then there were three little speckled frogs
Outcome: Three frogs left on the log
Three little Speckled Frogs
Introduction of three speckled frogs (repetition)
Sat on a speckled log,
Repeating the location and activity of the frogs
Eating some most delicious bugs.
Reiteration of the enjoyment of bugs
Yum! Yum!
Expression of pleasure from the delicious bugs
One jumped into the pool,
Another frog jumps into the pool
Where it was nice and cool,
Reiterating the coolness of the pool as an enticing factor
Then there were two little speckled frogs
Outcome: Two frogs left on the log
Two little Speckled Frogs
Introduction of two speckled frogs (repetition)
Sat on a speckled log,
Restating the location and activity of the frogs
Eating some most delicious bugs.
Reiteration of the enjoyment of bugs
Yum! Yum!
Expression of delight over the bugs
One jumped into the pool,
Another frog jumps into the pool
Where it was nice and cool,
Reiterating the coolness of the pool
Then there were one little speckled frogs
Outcome: One frog remaining on the log
One little speckled frog
Introduction of one speckled frog (repetition)
Sat on a speckled log,
Restating the location and activity of the remaining frog
Eating some most delicious bugs.
Reiteration of the enjoyment of bugs
Yum! Yum!
Expression of satisfaction from the bugs
One jumped into the pool,
The last frog jumps into the pool
Where it was nice and cool,
Reiterating the coolness of the pool as a tempting factor
Then there were no little speckled frogs.
Outcome: No frogs left on the log
