This week we read the poem ‘The Sound Collector’ by Roger McGough .
We looked carefully at the poem and identified the ‘secret strings’ that held the poem together:
- Includes sound words
- The sound describes the object
- Each new description is written on a new line
- Each stanza is four lines long
We then wrote our own version of the poem where we described the sounds that The Grinch might steal at Christmas time.
This week we performed songs from our Christmas Show. The children have worked very hard to learn all of the songs and it was wonderful to see them perform their lines with such clarity and confidence. We hope it got you into the festive spirit. Next week, we will record the full performance of our show and share it with you digitally.
On Wednesday 15th December it will be the KS1 Christmas party. The children must bring in their own party food in a snack/lunch box as we are unable to share food this year due to COVID guidelines. The children are invited to change into a party outfit for the afternoon. Please can the children bring in their outfit on Wednesday 15th December in a named bag.
We hope you have a restful weekend,
Miss Luetchford and Mrs Sharon 🙂
