This morning we have started creating "Colour My World Poems."
Here is the one we wrote as a class. You may be surprised but the ideas came from the children with a little bit of help from me. Prepare yourself to be blown away.
Red
Red is like a flaming hot fire,
chillis burning up in my mouth,
or a beautiful rose in the cultural gardens.
Red sounds like fireworks popping like a balloon in the sky,
an impatient fire truck, weeooo weeooo weeeooo,
Lava, violently bubbling out of the angry volcano.
Red tastes like the sweetness of a cherry melting on my tongue,
my teeth crunching in to a juicy apple,
a tomato exploding in my mouth.
Red feels like the soft piece of clothing sliding over my skin,
a squishy velvet cake like Spongebob trapped in my mouth,
blood as bold as food colouring dripping from my stubbed toe.
The colour red makes me feel strong inside.
