Year 6 have been joining lots of live broadcasts this week and after watching inspirational poets such as Joseph Coelho, Micheal Rosen and Kwame Alexander they wrote their own poetry!
Open A Book- By Jessica Y6
When you open a book,
You will find
People and places
Of every kind.
Open a book
And you can share
Magical adventures
You find in there
Read a book
And you will know
The amazing places
Your mind can go.
You are special – By Finley
You are special,
There is only one of you,
You are unique to any person,
To me,
To your family,
And everyone in the whole wide world.
This is who you are,
This is who you are meant to be,
You were like this for a reason,
And so was I,
And that reason makes you that special person.
We are all one kind,
All created the same,
And we all think we are the same,
But yet no one is perfect,
We were created this way,
And a way that makes everyone different,
And that way makes you a special person.
BLANK – By Annabelle
Once there was a boy his brain was clear
No book or poem went anywhere near,
His brain got fried by video games
Video games fried his brain
He had no imagination
He had no creation
In his eyes everything was black and white
Everything was black and white
All he ate was burgers from the shop
He played video games until his eyes went pop
Until he read a book!
The Night by Johan
As I curl up in my cosy bed,
Darkness looms over my room.
Shadows jump from wall to wall,
As the wind starts to call.
I hear the whispering
“ Whoo, Whoo”.
Can anyone hear my Whimpering,
Over the noise of the night,
Yes, I said the noise of the night.
I hide under the protection of blankets,
For I fear the night,
Yes, I fear the night.
It is when the unknown takes flight.
As I slowly close my eyes,
I see a familiar light.
It is starting to rise,
Banished is the night.
Year 6 watched an input from Frank Cottrell-Boyce and Steven Lenton on how to use characterisation to ‘drive their stories’ and explained how they practised bringing characters to life by imitating their teachers at school! Year 6 then practised bringing characters to life through drawings.
