London Bridge is falling down

We have been learning the nursery rhyme - London Bridge is falling down.

London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down.
London Bridge is falling down, my fair lady.

Build it up with sticks and stones,sticks and stones, sticks and stones.
Build it up with sticks and stones, my fair lady.

Sticks and stones will wash away, wash away, wash away.
Sticks and stones will wash away, my fair lady.

Build it up with iron and steel, iron and steel, iron and steel.
Build it up with iron and steel, my fair lady.

Iron and steel will bend and bow, bend and bow, bend and bow.
Iron and steel will bend and bow, my fair lady.

Build it up with bricks and mortar, bricks and mortar, bricks and mortar.
Build it up with bricks and mortar, my fair lady.

It will last forever more, ever more, ever more.
It will last forever more, my fair lady.

We looked at pictures of London and London bridge. The children decided to become builders and had a go at designing and making their own bridges.
