Poetry Week!
This week in Literacy we will be reading, learning and having lots of fun with our favourite poems! Please encourage your child to tell you all about our poem of the day! By the end of the week we will have written some of our own poems and will email them off to Pie Corbett (Miss Pennington’s famous author friend).
We have a special Poet’s Chair too!
Here’s some weblinks we will look at in school this week!
