We learned about the 5th of November and why we have bonfire night. We know all about Guy Fawkes and read the poem Remember, Remember the 5th of November. Some of us hadn’t heard it before. We also read other poems to do with bonfires and fireworks. We thought it would be good to create our own! So as a class we thought of all the words we associate with bonfire night and fireworks. We used all of our senses! We wrote these all on the whiteboard so everyone could see. Then in groups we made acrostic poems about fireworks and bonfires (we wanted to do bonfire night but we didn’t have enough room). Everyone in the group had to contribute! We had time at the end to draw colourful fireworks on our poems.
You worked really well in your groups. Well done!
