Poetry Patrol is here to inspire your pupils aged 5-7 to get writing.
They can write an acrostic poem, a riddle or a sense poem using the fun, free activities from the Acrostic Croc, Riddlin’ Rabbit or Sensory Skunk, which will ignite their imaginations so they’re ready to create fantastic poetry!
Use the colourful worksheet alongside the optional video and activities to engage and motivate your pupils to plan, draft and write their very own poems.
From animals and seasons to dreams and people, it’s easy to find a theme that appeals to all pupils as well as make Poetry Patrol a cross-curricular activity.
The competition entry deadline is 24 May 2019, but you can still use this resource as a great activity at any time.
