Now, what is a circle?
Where can it be found?
I know what it looks like,
It goes round and round.
It could be a Frisbee
Or the top of a cake.
It could be a pizza
Or a cookie we baked.
It could be the tire
On a brand-new car.
It could be a button
Or the lid of a jar.
Now, what is a circle?
Well, you'll have to guess.
A circle is something
A little like this. (Form circle with thumb and finger).
