English (22-06-2020) Poetry
This week, we are learning about poetry. Do you know any poems? What do you know about poetry?
Poetry is a text type that might focus on feelings, thoughts or ideas. There are lots of different types of poems. These include limericks, acrostic poems, shape poems and free verse. Poems might rhyme but they don't have to. Usual rules of word order and punctuation aren't always followed in poems.
Monday – L.O. To understand that there are different types of poems.
Tuesday – L.O. To explain why I like a poem
Poetry is meant to be performed and listened to. Listen to some of these poems. Which were your favourites? Why did you like them? Choose a poem and write a review for it.
Wednesday – L.O. To revise how to write a poem and create one of your own.
Here is a lesson to help you explore poetry.
Thursday – L.O. To explore inference questions using a poem.
This is a poetry reading comprehension.

Here is a video masterclass based on poetry. Could you write your own leaf poetry?

Emotional Literacy
Here are a few useful resources to help support you through these challenging times. We know that it is strange learning from home and not seeing your friends, but if we follow the guidelines and support one another we will be able to be back together soon!
As the UK faces a global coronavirus pandemic, things can feel a little uncertain and even overwhelming. But, during these difficult times, one thing is clear: small acts of kindness make a big difference. Across the country, there has been an outpouring of kindness and children and young people can play their role too. By understanding what we can all do to help tackle this virus, they’ll gain a sense of stability and resilience. The power of kindness calendar helps children and young people learn about and carry out kind acts.
This is a really important time for us to consider the relationships we have with people and who is important to us and why. Take a look at these activities, taking time to reflect on how your relationships with your friends may have changed over this period of time.
Within these unfamiliar times it is extremely important to make sure that we are looking after our own mental health and emotional wellbeing as well as those around us. These sessions and activities will help you to understand different feelings and how to support your own and others’ mental health

We are really keen to see what the children are getting up to at home and to put some photos on to Twitter and the school website. Additionally, it would be lovely to have photos that celebrate and thank the NHS and key workers. These do not have to be photos of your child but things that they have created such as posters, poems, rainbows or thank you cards.
