Halloween Poetry

This week we have been writing some different types of poems about witches and wizards. The children have selected their favourite poem to publish and create a class book.
Here are a selection of some of their poems below.

Simile Poems
The Wicked Witch

Skin as bumpy as a garden caterpillar,
Teeth as black as stones in soil,
Nose as long and pointy as a red rose bush,
Hair as brittle as uncooked pasta, Breath that is like rotten flesh. 

By Benny

            Wicked Witch

Skin as brown as a bruise,

Teeth as tough as an elephants tucks,

Nose as long as a drink bottle,

Hair as rough as tree branches!
    

          By Ameelea  

Wicked Witch

Skin as green as acid,

Eyes like red hot pokers,

Mouth as red mammal’s blood,

Nose like a long bumpy capsicum.

By Ashley

WITCH SHOPPING LIST

ONE windy Wednesday to blow away the wizard,           
TWO terrible treks to eat the wizard,
THREE thankless thieves to rob the wizard,
FOUR ferocious football players to kick the ball at the wizard,
FIVE  fussy flame figures to melt the wizard,
Six  sneaky  snakes to poison the wizard,
SEVEN sand sacks to drop on the wizard,
Eight great alligators to bite the wizard,
NINE pinecones to throw at the wizard.
TEN tiny tarantulas to scare the wizard.
                          BY SVEN  
 Witch's Shopping List
One wonky walking watch walking towards the wizard,
Two terrific teachers teaching in Room 13,
Three thumping thumbs to stomp on the wizard,
Four ferocious fat fish to fight the wizard,
Five fancy flamingos to flap away the wizard,
Six silly seals swimming sweetly to shore,
Seven skating snakes to slither on the wizard,
Eight annoying engines to annoy the wizard,
Nine nagging nappies to make the wizard faint,
Ten terrifying t-rexs to taunt the wizard.

By Eve

Humour 

Inside the Wizard's Pocket
 
Twenty-two flying elephants,
A really fat alien,
The Simpsons on their brown couch,
Freezing cold lava.        
                                                          By Tarin 
A silver-grey green eyed cat,
A plush hippo - the wizard's bedtime toy,
A powerful magic amulet,
A wand, every wizard has one!

Folk Dancing

During the second half of the term our focus during fitness was folk dancing. Below is a clip of the first dance that we learned called 'Follow the Leader'.
