There’s a lot to do when you move. Listen to this poem about what it’s like to move to a different house.
Do the preparation task first. Then listen to the poem and do the activities.
Fill the boxes, open the van
Put them in the back.
When you move from house to house
There is so much to pack!
Clothes and shoes and toys and books
Find and grab and fold.
Don’t forget a single thing
Under beds, on top of desks
More things over there!
Next to lamps, behind the door
Please check everywhere!
Say goodbye to ceilings, walls
Windows and the floor.
Remember all the good times here
Before you close the door.
In your new house there will be
New places to explore.
But best of all you’ll have with you
The things that you adore.
No matter where you stay or live
No matter where you roam
Your family and the things you love
All make a house your home.

SO FUN AND GOOD I thank my mom and dad and the App
We are going to move soon because my dad needs to work. I don't want to move out because I don't want to have to say goodbye to my family in Durban.
I'm gonna be moving soon too so mom can have a job
