LO: To understand haiku and to write our own.
We were lucky enough to have a poetry workshop with Explore Learning. We talked about haiku poetry, its origins and format. After learning the names and symbols for correct and incorrect in Japanese, we answered questions about haiku to check our understanding. In our beautiful booklets, there were some traditional and modern pictures to help us to generate our own ideas for our own haiku poems. We wrote a poem in our pairs and then one individually. They were so lovely, we decided to copy them up and carefully illustrate them for display. You can see them in the Year 4/5 corridor.
