This afternoon we went on a Winter Walk around the outdoor area. We stopped at three different spots – our playground, the Primary 7 playground and the Eco Garden. At each spot we were to look to see what we could see, listen to what we could hear and feel the air. We worked as a whole class to come up with ideas for phrases or sentences to make into a poem.
We discussed the fact that if we were to do this at different times of year and different times of day we would see and hear many different things! Even if we had carried out this task last Tuesday it was much colder and there was frost on the grass and the trees.
We decided as a class that our poem did not need to rhyme but that we would do a verse for each different spot that we stopped at.
Here we are on our walk and this is the poem that we came up with during our short lesson together.
