Year 4 - Poetry showcase

Over the last few weeks Year 4 children have transformed into poets!


Last week Year 4 wrote some spectacular snow poems, they were so good that Miss Staples and Miss Irvine wanted to show them off!


We invited Year 2 and Year 3 into the hall to our poetry showcase.


The children did an amazing job at performing some of their own poems. Especially as they didn't have very long at all to practise! Year 2 and Year 3 were very impressed.


Take a look at some of these fantastic poems!

Super Snow!

 
Super snow
Floating down like angels
I can’t wait to go
Super snow

 
Super snow
It is falling from the sky
It came from somewhere high
Super snow

 

Super snow
It flutters down gently
It drifts quit gingerly
Super snow

 
Super snow
The lovely snow is falling
It looks like a feather floating
Super snow

 
Super snow
Oh how I love you so!

It’s really snowing!

 
It’s really snowing
Well I believe,
It’s really snowing
Something I’ve wanted to receive.

 
It’s really snowing
Crunch! What an amazing sound
It’s really snowing
Piles of vanilla ice cream on the ground

 
It’s really snowing
Like a graceful swan
It’s really snowing
I’m glad the splash sound is gone

 
It’s stopped snowing
Unfortunately I believe
It’s stopped snowing
Something I wouldn’t want to receive

It’s finally snowing!

 It’s finally snowing!
Extraordinary snowflakes falling from the sky
It’s finally snowing!
Twirl and Whirl and float up high

 
It’s finally snowing!
Lungs are bouncing really fast!
It’s finally snowing!
Overpowered, it’s here at last!

 
It’s finally snowing!
An icy blanket wraps the world
It’s finally snowing!

Like soft warm hugs for boys and girls
 
It’s finally snowing!
It’s a clouds comfy bed
It’s finally snowing!
A sneaky snowball hit my head.

Spectacular snow
Bright white snow
Vanilla ice cream falling from the sky
A carpet that wraps the world
Squash the snow so soft
 
I am full with overwhelming joy
It falls as gracefully as a feather
Soft as a big comfortable pillow
It’s like a winter wonderland 

The snow bites a jaw dropping sight
But then it melts, you will nearly faint
It melts like white chocolate
Full of sadness, the world weeps

Snow is falling down
Snow is falling down
Don’t stop it now!
No ones in despair
It’s floating through the air
 
Snow is falling down
Don’t stop it now!
Splat of snowballs
Everyone feels magical
 
Snow is falling down
Don’t stop it now
Get your coats and hats now
We all have no doubt, that we all will go out!
 
Snow is falling down
Don’t stop it now!
It’s like a Christmas gift
A carpet that wraps the planet
 
Snow is falling down
Don’t stop it now!

Slishy Slushy Snow
The slishy slushy snow
It’s gliding everywhere
It’s getting thrown at peoples back
An even in peoples hair!
The slishy slushy snow
Make people go yipee!
Floating like an eagles feather
And hovering like a bee.
The slishy slushy snow
Smoothly flowing through the air
Made my car get a tow
And it ruined the fair!
The slishy slushy, slishy slushy, slishy slushy snow!
Written by Elliott Mcgillivray – Year4
Performed by Elliott, Rory and Hemanth



Yey! Snow is here!
The snow swiftly settles!
Yey! Snow is here!

I shout and shake with excitement!
Yey! Snow is here!
I stepped on the snow…crunch!
Yey! Snow is here!
The snow glows like glitter!
Yey! Snow is here!
I built a snowman 10 feet high!
Yey! Snow is here!
