Acrostic Poems

We have started to look at different forms of poetry and started with looking at acrostic poems. The old but loved poem was a favourite that many children already had a great knowledge about so we were about to get straight into writing them. We have spent quite a bit of time at looking at the different language features that are commonly used in descriptive pieces of writing and in poetry and have enjoyed writing our own similies, metaphors and alliteration. We especially enjoyed drawing our onomatopoeia words!

We worked hard on making our acrostic poems interesting and not just one word lines. Here are a few images of our finished work, I hope you enjoy them :)

Our Fabulous Quilling

Quilling, the coiling and shaping of narrow paper strips to create a design, has been around for years — hundreds, in fact. During the Renaissance, nuns and monks would roll gold-gilded paper remnants trimmed during the bookmaking process, and use them to decorate religious objects as an alternative to costly gold filigree. Quilling later became a pastime of 18th and 19th century young ladies in England, who would decorate tea caddies and pieces of furniture with paper filigree.

We have spent much time with Mrs Lyon mastering the art of quilling - and if I can say so myself we are all so talented in this area now. We created many spectacular pieces of art work, starting from black and white contrasting designs to a complete A3 image.
