In writing we have been learning to use similes to make comparisons. We wrote animal family poems to compare our family members to animals. Once we redrafted our poems we researched images of different animal patterns and created a background for our writing, full of differen animal patterns. Have a look at our animal themed display below.

Flanders Fields Poem Writing
As part of our Remembrance day topic we analysed the poem Flanders Fields written by John McCrae. We explored the meaning of the poem in depth and then noted the poetic techniques which made the poem so effective. Using this knowledge, we wrote our own poems in the perspective of soldiers who fought in the war. Our poems were very touching and included excellent rhyming and repetition. We typed our poems and added a poppy themed background.
