My name is Pitten.
My age is seven.
I love collecting seashells on the shore,
I enjoy playing the sand and more.
Beach is a great place to explore,
Beach time has improved my arithmetic score.
I know how to add, subtract, and even multiply,
It is as easy as an apply pie.
1 times 7 is 7,
Add 4 years I turn eleven.
2 times 7 is 14,
That’s when I become a real teen.
3 times 7 is 21,
I love watching the rising sun.
4 times 7 is 28,
Doing math unit is simply great.
5 times 7 is 35,
I enjoy leaning how to dive.
6 times 7 is 42,
I choose an ocean over a pool.
7 times 7 is 49,
Running barefoot is so much fun.
8 times 7 is 56,
Life is full of numerical tricks.
9 times 7 is 63,
Swimming near a beach makes me feel FREE.

This was plain SWEET!!! A lovely way to teach math to a kid… I will remember this one… A lovely lovely fun poem!!!
Ahh.. beaches… (sigh)…
you seem to be a math enthusiast 😉 I like your poetic style in using it 🙂
Jeeezz… you really are so inspiring, Ji!!!
I have math post every Monday when I started this blog,
later I stopped..
It is part of my plan,
it is not that hard to do it…
As you know,
I used to teach my own kids math at home,
I taught math for 6 years at college level…
ahaaa… that explains it!!! 🙂
Excellent, Ji!! Everytime I learn something more about you, I have more and more respect for you 🙂
I love math too… i remember writing a post a coupla years back, on some discovery I had made in math (according to me ofcourse :))
Great going, Jingle!!!
I love beaches. Sadly, they didn’t quite fit into my B’s post this time… I love math too 🙂
This is so cute!
Great post Jingle, Little Pitten is a smart little girl she is learning a lot about life exploring the beach…thank you for your loyalty to Monday’s Child…blessings..bkm
Love the math poem!
On behalf of ABC Wednesday team, thanks for joining us! – ROG
I think all little girls should enjoy math. And a beach.
Teaching arithmetic in a novel way.
So clever, yet poetic!

~brilliantly written…a wonderfully fun rhyme you have given…warm wishes and brightest blessings~
How fun. What a great attitude. 🙂 I hope you are having many hours of creative writing these days. 🙂
Ah math >.< kills my brain during high school, now is programming related to calculations that is killing me. Anyways this is a very fun poem and i like the rhyme of it. Thank for sharing Jingle:P
You are so creative. I love how you can make math seem fun. It is always so refreshing for me to visit your blog.
Beach is the child’s paradise, and apparently a classroom, too.
very sweet n lovely
i never found maths so so interesting !! 😉
That was adorable, Jingle! You are so clever!
the beach is a great place brought back happy memories for me xxxfor adventure, u
The poem would make a creative lesson for young children to recall multiplication. cheers, Jingle
This has brought a BIG smile on my face – it’s so great and SOoooo much fun. It also has a deeper message of aging…and how the same little girl still appreciates the beach and all things related, even when she’s older, albeit different things at different stages of her life.
Awesome! Thanks 😀 xx
Excellent post! Math isn’t my strongest suit, but its not my worst. Nicely done!

I love beaches more than anything in the world so I related to this poem greatly. Love the math/age device and especially how you come home full circle to being that same Self. Such is the journey:) I enjoyed this – good work.
Hey Jingle this is really nice, it flows along and really keeps your interest, you have a great imagination!
This is so clever! I love the repetition and beautiful story. Thank you for the inspiration, Kristin xo
That was really cute. I loved it. Well done and amazing that you were able to keep three different challenges/prompts in mind as you wrote. I really enjoyed reading yopur entry and think I might remember my 7’s better now. 🙂
