Year 3 - poetry that uses the senses
We have really enjoyed using our senses to develop our descriptive writing for poetry. We began with a poem that focused on our hearing, called ‘Listen’. We thought about all the different adjectives we could use for quiet: hushed, calm, peaceful, soundless, tranquil, silent and still.
We read the poem Pineapple by Vyanne Samuels and tried to include at least three senses as well as alliteration and metaphors in our own poems about pineapples. We loved touching, smelling and tasting to help us develop our vocabulary. We created some fantastic images.
