Exploring onomatopoeia!

We had lots of fun today preparing for writing our weather poems. We learnt all about onomatopoeia and thought about which words sound like different kinds of weather.

Here are the zig-zag books we made!













We shared our books with our friends...






Which of these words will you use in your weather poem?

Fantastic Friday...

In the Wrens every Friday is known as 'Fantastic Friday'!

Fridays are fantastic because at the end of each week of exciting learning, we always find our last burst of energy so we can do lots more lovely work!!!

One of our jobs today was to learn a new skill - word processing using the iPads. Here we are typing out the toy poems that we wrote yesterday:







































What a busy class we are...even on a Friday!

Come and read all the fabulous poems we have written. As you can see we have worked very hard.

What's in the toy box?

The Wrens have been writing more toy poems! We looked at a poem written by Trevor Millum and this inspired us to create our own versions. Here are some snippets of the poems we wrote:


What's in the toy box?

What's in the toy box?
What's in the box?
What's in the box 
With the big brass locks?



There's a crane
And a really fast train,


There's a silver clock
And a shiny rock,


Some lego bricks 
And an x-box one,


There's some beautiful hearts
And a lovely piece of art,


There's a gigantic mat
And a fan that flaps,


Some red bouncing balls
And a massive swimming pool,


There's some people who walk
And a teddy bear that talks,


A shiny white Ford
And a swimming award,


There's some shoes to wear
And a grizzly bear,


There's a bus that is green
And a house that is clean,


There's a monster truck
And a yellow duck,


There's a cute little cat
And a dancing mat,


There's some remote control trains
And a flying plane,


There's a dumper truck
And a red and black duck,


There's a wooden sign
And a white and black combine,


There's a red ted
And a blue bed,


Some clowns that frown
And a king that sings,

Some dolls wearing hats
And a rounder's bat,

Some crowns that glow
And a machine that sews,

There's a big dino
And a fierce rhino.

That's what's in the toy box!
That's what's in the box!

You can tell by our faces that we are very proud of the poems that we wrote!

Well done Wrens!!!
