Remembrance

We have been focusing on Remembrance.

Through discussion the class chose what they would like to do and how we could display this for our learning on Remembrance. We looked at how the petals of a poppy can often be shown as a heart and we tried to recreate this within our painting.

We have also looked at Haiku poems and used this as a way to show our thanks for those who have been involved in any wars or fighting too. We chose a haiku poem as they should be short and powerful, we thought that this would be a great way to display our thoughts and feelings. Below are some of the poems that the class have created.

 

Shooting starts again.

Trenches fill with injured ones.

Always remember

 

Two minutes silent,

We will remember the war.

We will remember.

 

They all went to war.

We will remember them all.

Where did you all go?

 

We will remember.

The soldiers who died for us.

Now the poppies grow.

 

Two minutes silence,

To remember fields of war,

Where poppies grew once.

  1. These Haiku poems are very moving. It is so important that we all remember and honour the service men and women who have lost their lives in service to their county. Thank you.

    1. I liked this one too. I did my own as the class were doing theirs; it got put on the fridge at home alongside the girls’ artwork too!
