=Literacy Lesson 2 - Practising Poetry=

Poems are a great way of describing things.

David Hockneys swimming pool pictures showed a range of techniques and they can be beautifully described in a poem. A poem is a good way of imaginatively describing things.
 * A poem might rhyme or might not rhyme
 * A poem can use alliteration (where words start with the same letter - e.g. Horrible Henry)
 * Poems are made up of stanzas (verses)

This poem doesn't have to rhyme but should have 2 stanzas The Pulped Paper work gives a great excuse to use alliteration - could you use it again elsewhere?

Base your poem around these two pictures

This is a mosaic made of pulped paper This is a mosaic made of photographs

Sometimes poems are set out in a pattern with pictures. Instead of just writing it out in best write it out in a pattern and add some pictures.
 * Bonus Task**

//James decided on an indented pattern and to put the pictures in the middle of the poem.//
