Dragons Breath, Kittens, and Wild Horses

Scott's literacy group have been reading and writing poems this week. It has been fun to unpack what a poem looks, sounds, and feels like along with giving it a go in our writing sessions.

For our Arts Celebration in week 5 (more on that over the next couple of weeks so keep your eyes posted!) we are planning to write poems in teams to reflect our learning and the focus for our performances. So this week has been a great opportunity to get our minds and creativity buzzing after the break.

Here are some examples from this week with more to come soon!


Wild Horses

Wild Horses
Gallop past rivers and meadows and grasslands.
They stop to have a break

By Sammy M


When wild horses run the ground gets dusty.
Wild horses find food which is grass.

Samuel P



The horses gallop in the creepy, dark forest!
Then to water to all drink.
But then, which way to go out of the forest?

By Jugni


A herd of wild horses is fast.
But one day the herd went to a spooky forest.
It was quiet.
Suddenly, they were spooked.

By Raife


Wild horses race through the forest.
The ground shakes like an earthquake.
They run with their babies.

By Ava



Kittens


Kittens chase each other and fight each other.
They play with each other.
They rest and sleep and love each other.

By Arthur


Kittens play with their friends
And sleep with their mums.

By Esme-Rose


Cats scratch curtains.
Cats chase and catch mice.
They bring them in the house.

By Locky


Kittens feel like a really soft rag.
Kittens pounce like tigers.
They look like fluffy balls.
They like to take naps in the sun like lions.

By Lexi


Kittens start off as small as a chair.
They grow as big as a teddy.
They are soft as a hairy blanket.
They have fur like a lions.

By Alice


Wild horses race past rivers.
Wild horses run through high grass.
Their hooves thomp, thomp
as the sand flies up.
The horses speed through the woods and past trees.

By Milli






Dragons Breath

Dragon went hunting.
He was very hungry for a pig.
He smelt like rotten eggs.

By Frankie


My dragon does a flip.
He looks like a crazy dragon.
He can fly to the moon.

By Leo



The dragon is looking for food.
He is not good at making food.
So he searches for a road.

By Scarlett
