Welcome to our class blog! All our weekly news will be posted here so you can keep updated with what our class have been doing.
Tuesday 15th October 2013.
Class One have been lucky enough to have visiting published poet, Susan Jane Sims, working with us on creating original poetry. Starting with writing our favourite words on raffle tickets, we have then built up poems using these words and the poetic techniques we learnt earlier in the term.
Susan is visiting as part of The Threshold Prize (www.thresholdprize.org.uk). the Threshold Prize was set up to encourage children's interest in the richness of the English language and help them develop their own creativity.
Following today's work, we will be writing up our poems and posting them on Sue's site, www.poetryspace.co.uk. There are also interactive activities on the site that anyone can add to......so have a go alongside your child!
