Circle time in P7

P7 have circle time every Thursday and we have circle time rules.1 of our rules are don’t talk when other people are talking, good eye contact, good listening and don’t laugh at other peoples comments. We do a game then a round then a activity and if we have time at the end   we do another game. Our games are usually something like elephant and mouse, splat, look up look down, novelty voices and the sun shines on. Our round is something like how we feel when someone wastes time…… or how well we concentrate in class…… and our activity is something like what’s on your mind or memory games and listening skills. We all enjoy circle time and would like to keep on having it.

We dressed up as characters from our novel . We had a special assembly and competitions that we ran. The winners were Ben P2, Geoffrey  P2 , Liam P3 ,Lucy P3,Sophie P5/6 ,Josh P5/6 and Sophie P7. We all had a fantastic time and can`t wait until the next World Book Day.

A scary creature

A lurking beast

A waiting soul

The wind moves the tree

In autumn you can say bye

When I Am Alone or Sad

I twiddle my thumbs

When I am alone or sad

When alone I play Xbox

And that cheers me up sometimes

Poems

Autumn Haiku

In the Autumn Winds

Leaves fly swiftly through the woods

Then drop to the ground.

Nature Tanka

I stroll through the land

Catching the sights of nature

Beautiful sights there

The ones mother nature made

5 lines aren’t nearly enough.

Shark Kenning

A swift swimmer

A blood sensor

A huge predator

A sharp teethed mammal

A fish hunter

A skin chewer

A Mammal threatener

A deadly attacker.

P7 Poems

KENNING

That’s my pet !!!

A meat eater

A blood drinker

A fast pouncer

A stripped attacker

And a computer hacker!

That’s my pet!

Tanka

I’m so alone

I walk in the woods

I try to catch butterflies

When I feel alone

I have no one to talk to

And I feel I have no friends

Haiku

Autumn

The wind blows the leaves

To the bottom of the trees

That’s the start of autumn
