In English lessons this week we have been looking at poems. We looked at a virtual firework display on the board and used adjectives to describe what the fireworks looked like. We then thought about what the fireworks were doing and created our own verb brainstorms.

We read different  firework poems and talked about the features, for example, rhyming words, repetition etc. We completed some poems with missing words and then learnt it off by heart. We then wrote a firework poem as a whole class before writing our own. The poem on the thinking mat says-

The fireworks are zooming fast, up in the air.

The fireworks are popping like bubbles.

The fireworks are exploding like a volcano.
