Performance poetry

Just a couple of clips showing marvellous Mulberries performing some poems. The first one is called Walking With My Iguana, by Brian Moses. They loved learning it and it inspired them to write their own versions. 

   

This one is called, I like to Play My Old Guitar.

Come back soon to see their own poems being performed!

Pupil in role!

This morning we have been acting as a pupil in role, pretending to be a story character called Callum. We have been asking and answering questions about him.

  

 

The iron man

 This week we have been writing our own dramatic story openers, for our own Iron Man. We had designed our metal men and described them using powerful words and similes. Once we had written our openers, we used these and our iron man designs to create some animations. We hope to share them here soon!

Where did they come from? Nobody knows...

What a surprise we got this morning when we Mrs Smith told us that something strange had appeared on the playground. We had no idea what they were, but we had lots of different ideas about what they could be and where they came from. 

We thought it may have come from outer space or the sky, but we were very unsure about the sand. The parts looked like bits of machines and some of them looked like body parts.

The more we looked, the more kept noticing different things.

We heard the beginning of a story, which you can see here, about an iron man. We imagined we found the parts at the bottom of the cliff and freeze-framed our emotions.
