My Poem Analysis - Term 2 2013

WALT read a poem and analyse the language features of a poem.

Tickling the swans the river rushed passed,

Eating the reeds like it's a race,

Wildly hammering against the river bed,

Spitting water droplets,

Rapids exploding in the air,

Kicking the river banks while sweeping past,

Waves sprinting,

Splash!

Crash!

Barging it's way into the locks,

Gushing, gushing, gushing!

Should Cigarettes Be Banned?

Should Cigarettes be banned?

I think yes because it stops wasting less money and you can buy the things you really want  

instead of smokes.

You could spend more time with your family and spend the money on more important things than cigarettes. Like your children and family.

You are going to ban cigarettes.

I think you should ban cigarettes because it can kill lives and ruin peoples lives. It can also harm and influence our community and younger ones to start smoking.

You should ban cigarettes because it can harm our younger ones and if you are a mum and you’re pregnant, you could kill your younger one inside.

Smoking is bad and it should be banned. So stop before you put a cigarette in your mouth and start to realise that you could harm anyone in your family.

The Flying Carpet

The Magic Flying Carpet

Every picture tells a story.

Use your imagination and experience to narrate (tell) a story about the picture.

Where is the carpet going? Why?

What problem is caused? How is it solved?

Think about:

• where your story is set
• who your characters are - what they do, what they say, and how they think and feel
• the problem and how it is solved
• the order of your ideas and how they are linked.

Remember to:

• choose your words carefully
• take care with your spelling, punctuation, and sentences
• edit-add or delete words or sentences to improve your work
