The Grade Threes are currently learning all about dinosaurs in class, a topic they are very enthusiastic about! During library they have been exploring their creative side by writing funny poems about dinosaurs.
Before we began, we learnt about where dinosaur books can be found on the library shelves according to the Dewey Decimal system. They were then taken through a process to help them construct a poem and once they had all their planning in place, they set off to write their masterpieces.
Some found it challenging, some couldn't stop the words tumbling from their brain to their pages, but overall their efforts resulted in hilarious dinosaur poems.
The following poem was written by Aaron in Grade Three Hewson. He thought it would be funny for a dinosaur to find its way into the library.
A Dinosaur In The Library
By Aaron O
A dinosaur in the library.
But, how could this be?
Did it jump through the roof?
Or climb in using a tree?
The dinosaur reads a book.
The teacher is so scared, hiding under the desk
without phoning the policeman who is sleepy in his bed.
The clock strikes five, the dinosaur gets a fright.
The dinosaur runs away saying; "Goodbye and goodnight!"
Isn't Aaron's poem brilliant? I can't wait to see what the Grade Three girls come up with during Library next week!
