English for week beginning 06/07/20

6/7/2020

0 Comments

 
Two weeks ago you created  a book of different list poems.  We heard some fantastic poems sent over chat, email and listened to on Zoom. You are natural poets! This week, we are going to continue with our poetry theme.
​Day 1-   Monday 6th July 2020
Read pages  16-18 and write your own   
lockdown poem.
Here is an example:
Picture
Lockdown Park
Cawston Park watches and waits.
Suddenly, squealing children enter, laughing.
The rope swing giggles.
The slide smiles.
The trampoline tenses.
A child clutches the thick, frayed rope and swings and sways over the soft sand, shrieking.
Another child skids down the slide, grinding to a sudden halt.
The gentle thump, thump, thump of a distant trampoline provides a steady heartbeat.
Steel springs squeak in rhythm, providing a welcome tune.
Cawston Park sighs and smiles.
Lockdown Park watches and waits.
Suddenly, a sign arrives with shackles.
No squeals. No laughter. No children.
The rope swing stares.
The slide glares.
The trampoline slackens.
No one clutches the thick, frayed rope.
No one swings and sways over the soft, yellow sand. No steady heartbeat. No squeaky tune.
​Empty, Lockdown Park scowls and frowns.

Day 3- Wednesday 8th July 2020
Today you will be thinking more about the lockdown poem from day 1 and spotting  alliteration! Alliteration is when words that are close together start with the same sound. It helps make images stand out.
​For example, The slide smiles.
Read and complete pages  20-24.
