This week in 3P we finished our Anthony Browne unit and moved onto Poetry. We began this unit by looking at a range of poems. We talked about how poetry and stories are different and identified the main features of poetry.
Did you know that poetry is written in verses and not paragraphs?
We have now begun to plan our own animal poems.
Here is just a sneak peak at a couple of the animals we have chosen.

We have also been developing our art skills in 3P this week.
We have been learning how to make our still life pictures look 3D. We have focused on using curved lines and have started to make sure our objects are in proportion.
We worked hard while completing our observational drawings and we can not wait to implement these new skills into our final sketches.
I can't wait to read some of your upcoming animal poems. By the way, I challenge somebody from 3P to write me a poem about a worm - after all it is my favourite animal!
