We linked out Literacy with Social studies by writing poems for National Poetry day based upon our visit to the Scottish Parliament building.

We tries to use similes and alliterations in our poems to make them more effective.

 

Look. What can you see?

I see walls white as snow

With pools glistening with a glow.

I see glittering glass with sights that will last.

Before we got inside I took a breath and let out a blow.

 

I see shimmering, shining security with smiling guards.

We got out and let out a gasp.

I see kind people smiling at me

I hoped it would last.

 

I see shiny, smooth stone in the light.

It was such wonderful sight.

I see wondrous wood.

With glittering glass, it felt right.

 

The Scottish Parliament

Is where we went.

With sights so wonderful you will never imagine

That’s why we went.
