Before the holidays we were looking at habitats, and how animals were adapted to live where they do. Everyone worked in teams to make a new animal out of vegetables and things Mr Quinlan brought in. They had to think carefully about why they were making the animals look like they did, and how their features helped them to live.
When they had made the animals everyone made a fact file about them, saying what features they had and how they needed these to cope in the habitat they lived in.
We had some pretty creative creatures!
This week we have been learning about poetry.We have been reading poems, and had a go at writing our own version of a poem by Pie Corbett.
Today we had a go at performing some poetry to the whole class. Some groups used poems we have been reading together, some used the poem we wrote as as a class. Some groups chose to add actions to their performances, and some concentrated on reading together or as a chorus.

This morning our class learned how to write similies. We had a go at writing similie poems.
Can you guess what these similie poems are describing? Let us know what you think by commenting.
As blond as a pencil,
As stripy as a zebra,
Bigger than an ant,
Smaller than a bee,
As Sneaky as an ant,
I can not describe,
Because it is not me.
