Poetry activity and events this week

In Uncategorized on November 15, 2010 by oquinlan

This week in Literacy we are carrying on with our poetry. After doing some wonderful performances (see http://4oqblog.wordpress.com) we will be moving on to writing about poems using imagery.

Activity idea:

Try using a child-safe image search like the one here: http://primaryschoolict.com/ . Type in an idea for things you could describe in a poem and select ‘Image Search’. See if you and your child can think of ways of describing without naming what you see. You could think about different senses or Alliteration, Rhyming or Onomatopoeia.

 

In Maths we are looking at multiples, and using multiplication for large numbers. We have some fantastic Tudor objects to look at in History, and we are doing an experiment about forces in Science.

On Friday it is our Eid and Diwali party. Some children have prepared acts for a talent show, and others have made games to play. We will discuss bringing food and drink in for the party with your children tomorrow. It is also a non-uniform day in aid of BBC Children in Need.
