Year 3 Home Learning - Wednesday 10th May

“Once Upon A Dream – Poetry Competition”

Following our lesson today (which used the Young Writers’ On-line Video Lesson), I have asked the children to write a poem for Young Writers' “Once Upon A Dream’ Poetry Competition.

With help from the BFP (That’s the Big Friendly Poet) the children were reminded about various possible poetic techniques that they might choose to use: - similes, imagery, onomatopoeia and personification.

They can write a poem about a dream they have had, or a dream for the future, or they could face their fears and write about a bad dream. Poems can be in any style.

We have given the children a copy of the entry form for the competition. We need to have this back to school by Wednesday 17th May so that we can send the entries away in time for the deadline.

If you would like to watch the “video lesson” again to help with ideas, the web link is below:
