Year 3/4's have been busy learning about and writing amazing poetry. We have written haiku, shape poems, odes, personification, and limerick poems to date. Poetry is a fabulous way to express many emotions. Combine this with the power of words, metaphor and similes, poetry really does help us to better express ourselves and make sense of the world and our place in it.

I have learnt more about how to structure a poem and use similes, metaphors and personification to make my poems more interesting - Lachie P, Year 4. 

I think it is interesting how there are lots of different types of poems which means lots of different way to express emotions - Gus W, Year 4

Here is some of our amazing poetry -

PERSONIFICATION POEMS

The Pig

 There once lived a pig called King, 

He really liked to sing loudly. 

His lovely wife died, 

He sat and cried. 

While cuddling her bling ring.

By Eve

The Boy

There once lived a boy called Jake,

Who got quite fat eating a cake.

He could not move a bit, 

But he would mostly sit.

A terrible runner he’d make.
