Monday – Poetry

This week we will be looking at poetry. Today we would like you to look at the poems below and identify some of the key features using the key

provided. You may want to use coloured pencils to help you identify each different feature or a ruler and a pencil to neatly underline/label.

Verse (group of text, similar to a paragraph)

Repetition

Figurative language (similes, metaphors, personification, alliteration etc.)

Poet (the person who wrote the poem)

Tuesday – Figurative language

We covered similes and metaphors a few weeks ago (w/b 8.6.20) so you might want to look back at your learning from then to refresh your

memory. Today we are going to focus on alliteration and personification.

Alliteration:

Alliteration is where the first letters of multiple words are the same. Here are some examples:

Remember: alliteration could be just 3 words in a sentence. Now have a go at writing some examples of alliteration yourself. Challenge: Can you

link them to teamwork ready for your writing later this week?

Personification:

Examples of personification are:

Now, we would like you to write some examples of

personification.

Wednesday – Planning

about teamwork. You can choose to do an acrostic poem (where you spell Teamwork down the side of the poem so that each line starts with a

letter of the word teamwork), a poem with different verses or a simple poem. Remember to challenge yourself and be your Bowsland Best.

3. Have you included a range of features from the success criteria?
