Primary 2 have been learning how to write an acrostic poem today.

First we made up two acrostic poems as a class with everyone sharing their ideas.  As a class we made an acrostic poem for STAR and one for MOON.  Here they are:

Stars are shiny
The stars are bright
All the stars are nice
Really sparkly in the sky.

Moves slowly
One moon in our sky
Only at night time the moon comes out
Near the moon are the stars.

We then went on to try and write our own acrostic poems for SANTA.  Here are some examples of our work.

Santa gives us presents
And he is very
Nice
Tonight santa comes
And he is a happy man.

Santa always watches you
All the elves make presents
Now it is Christmas
The reindeer are outside
A reindeer was flying in the sky.

Santa brings gifts
And he is a happy man
Now it is December
The elves make presents
At Christmas Santa comes.

Santa is the best
A reindeer was off sick
Now it is Christmas Eve
The reindeer is better
All the presents were delivered.

Santa is the best man
And he delivers presents
Night time and Santa comes
The elves work for Santa
And Santa is sleepy.
