Phonics Poem- Shirley Shepherd

Shirley Shepherd
Shirley Shepherd counted sheep:
one sheep two sheep three sheep four,
shuffling through her bedroom door.
And when she drifted off to sleep,
she dreamed of those four shaggy sheep:
one sheep two sheep three sheep four,
eating shortcake on her floor!
-Brook Pieri

Identify the sh- blends in this poem and draw the visual image you got when reading this poem. Can sheep really eat shortcake on a bedroom floor?
