Poetry

Over the last few weeks, Miss Bannan's writing group have been learning about some different types of poetry. We learned about similes, and used them to write a poem about the colours of the rainbow.
After our class trip into Christchurch to ride the tram and visit the new library, we used our senses to write a poem about our experiences. Lastly, we learned about nouns, verbs and adjectives so that we could write a diamante poem about summer and winter. We had lots of fun publishing and decorating our poems, and they have made the walls in our classroom very colourful! Here are some of our published poems (by Sophia, Akeilah, Mikayla, Bailee, Phoebe and Turanga).
