Week 3
Good morning Year
2!
We are missing you so so much and hope you are keeping safe at home.
Here is some more
English for this week.
This week we are
going to look at poetry.
What makes a great
poem?
We are going to be
learning to write our own silly poems this week which will include...
· Repetition
·
Rhyming
·
Imagery
LO: To read and
perform part of a poem
We are going to
create our poems based on Michael Rosen’s ‘Don’t’
Read the poem
below and listen to the link of the famous poet performing it.
Don't
Don't do,
Don't, do
Don't do that.
Don't pull faces,
Don't tease the cat.
Don't pick your ears,
Don't be rude at school.
Who do they think I am?
Some kind of fool?
One day they'll say
Don't put toffee in my coffee
don't pour gravy on the baby
don't put beer in his ear
don't stick your toes up his nose.
Don't put confetti on your spaghetti
and don't squash peas on your knees.
Don't put ants in your pants
don't put mustard in the custard
don't chuck jelly at the telly
and don't throw at a computer
dont throw fruit at a computer.
Don't what?
Don't throw fruit at a computer
Don't what?
Don't throw fruit at a computer
Who do they think I am?
Some kind of fool?
Task
Can you read the poem out loud?
Choose your favourite stanza
(section), can you re-read this section and try to memorise it?
Try echo reading with your grown up…
it will help you remember!
Once you feel confident… choose your
audience. Can you perform part of the poem?
Remember to use
·
A clear loud
voice
·
Face the audience
·
Add expression
Lesson 2
LO: To find features of a poem
Re-read yesterday’s poem ‘Don’t’
What do you like about this poem?
Is there anything you don’t like about
the poem?
Write your opinions of the poem in our
home learning book or on a piece of paper.
What does rhyming mean?
Watch the video below for an
explanation.
Task 1
In your home learning book can you
find all the rhyming pairs in Michael Rosen’s
Example
that – cat
school – fool
Task 2
Poem’s also contain lots of
repetition.
Can you find a word or phrase in the
poem that is repeated lots of times?
Record this in your home learning
book.
Lesson 3
LO: To write our own rhyming pairs
It can be quite tricky to write poems
with rhyming words in, as there are different patterns and rhythms in different
poems.
We are going to start off as simply as
possible.
Task 1
Write a list of 9 nouns.
(A noun is a name, place or thing)
Example
chair
bed
coat
Task 2
Next to each noun, can you write
another noun that rhymes with the first?
Remember a noun is a word that ends in
the same sound.
Example
chair – pear
bed – bread
coat – boat
Lesson 4
LO: To draft part of a poem
Time to put those rhyming pairs into
phrases or sentences.
Re-read ‘Don’t’ from lesson 1.
We are going to try and fit our
rhyming pairs into Michael Rosen’s poem.
Task 1
In your learning books can you turn
your rhyming words into a sentence of a phrase that starts with don’t.
Try to group them in threes.
Example
Don’t put pears on top of chairs,
don’t spread bread into the bed
and don’t use your coat as a boat.
LO: To edit and re-write a poem.
Yesterday you put your rhyming pairs
into short sentences and phrases.
Time to improve your learning and
write your poem altogether.
How could you improve your poem?
1) Check your spelling with a dictionary
or using the internet.
2) Use your best handwriting.
Time to do your best piece of writing.
Use Michael Rosen’s poem to start
yours… and then be creative.
Miss James’s example
Don't
Don't do,
Don't, do
Don't do that.
Don't pull faces,
Don't tease the cat.
Don't pick your ears,
Don't be rude at school.
Who do they think I am?
Some kind of fool?
One day they'll say
Don’t put pears on top of chairs,
don’t spread bread into the bed
and don’t use your coat as a boat
What do
they think I am?
Some kind
of goat?
Try performing your poem to your
family to make them smile!
