Another Free Verse Poem



I wrote this poem because my family loves music and I love it to!

MUSIC
Music is like a humming bird
which always likes
to sperad its wings
and sing a little song.
Music is like a tune
which always seems to bloom.
Music is like bunch of farmyard friends
which noisey noises never really ends.
Music is my favourite thing
I like to dance
and I like to sing.
I love to sing
and I like to do everything!

I hope you liked it!

Free Verse Poem

At school we were writing a free verse poem which is a poem that has lots of language features and I am going to tell you mine.

LOVE

Love is like a red rose
which always seems to bloom.
The cars,
the stars,
the moons,
the spoons,
and even the Universe
wouldn't be the same without love.
With the love
that we all share
in this wide world
we could do anything.
Just to think that
if we didn't have our beloved God
we wouldn't have anything-
no cars,
no stars,
no moons
no spoons
no anything!
I love love,
so you should love it to.



I hope you liked my poem.

My play



At school we have been practicing a play during performing arts and at lunchtimes. We have formed a small group of about 7. Our play is called "Princess Euphorbia." It is about a girl who has green hair and nobody wants to marry her. It's a bit silly because when she does find somone she kisses him and he turns into a frog.
It has been quite interesting making costumes and props. We have had a load of fun and we are looking forward to performing the play at an old people's home in our area.

In our Inquiry into a network of friends and a networked community we have been talking about how we can be a friend to people in our community.
We were thinking that we could have a foundation box at our concert and people could put money into it. Some members of the group want to donate the money to the RSPCA which is a refuge for abandoned animals. We could also donate any money raised that we can raise to a charity which could help children - something like Ronald McDonald House, the Women's Shelter, Camp Quality, Make a Wish Foundation, the Children's hospital or World Vision.

We need to do lots more rehearsing to be ready for performances!
Stay tuned!!!

Term 4

This term my class and I have been learning what a true friend is. For homework we were asked to write an acrostic poem with the word friend and I am going to show you mine.

Fair, fun, forgiving and fantastic true friends should be.

Really cool friends are also respectful, reliable and responsible.

Ideal, inspiring and interesting my true friends are.

Exceptionally exciting and entertaining I would like my friends to be.

Neighbourly, nice and nurturing great friends are.

Devoted a good friend is.

I hope you enjoyed the acrostic poem I wrote!!!
