Poetry In Term 4

Hi team,

I hope that you enjoyed and learnt a bit about the events that happened in Hiroshima during World War 2. This term we will look at poetry so as an introduction I thought we would write a Haiku Poem (Japanese style poetry) about Hiroshima and the dropping of the atomic bomb.

Continuing with our writing goal of "painting a picture in the reader's mind" begin to brainstorm some ideas for your haiku poem. We will finish crafting them tomorrow and then use our wonderful creative skills to publish them.

Finally we will put all of our poems together and make a book of poetry.

Use ideas from the book I read you today to generate some feelings and emotions to help with your draft.
