LITERACY - NATIONAL POETRY DAY

On Thursday, as it was National Poetry Day, we dedicated our learning to the love of poetry, listening to it and writing our own poems.
We drew inspiration from the Amazon rainforest, with a focus on the Tarantula. To help us, we went exploring in the school grounds to find spiders to study carefully, within their natural habitat. This really helped us. Here we are rummaging in the undergrowth!

The tarantula's furry, pointy legs scattered across the floor like tingling fingers

It's dark, beady eyes shine and look like a demon flying in the dark sky

                                                 It's warm, furry body is as soft as                                                    a feather.
