We all came to school in wonderful costumes of our favourite book characters. Even the staff dressed up as the characters (and objects) from the poem The Owl and the Pussycat, which we have been looking at this week.
We spent the day learning the lines for the poem, so that we could perform it off by heart. We talked lots about the things we needed to do to make our performance a good one, and then we had the chance to put our skills into action when we performed for Year 4 in the afternoon. Year 4 were so impressed that we were able to recite the poem without looking at the words, and they enjoyed the actions we included using our puppets. We loved listening to them recite Chocolate Cake - a poem we find very funny!
Everyone had a great day learning lots about poetry, and reading in general, and we look forward to exploring poetry further over the next few weeks.
