Pie Corbett’s playful poem and activities celebrate the power of imagination…

This resource features Pie’s original poem, ‘What are You?’ as well as accompanying activities that he has created for your class.

Students will be asked to read through the poem thoroughly, asking themselves questions like ‘Which ideas are the most surprising and why?’, ‘Which ideas interest you the most and why?’, ‘Which idea is the cleverest / funniest and why?’ and ‘Find and explain the hardest idea’.

They will write a short paragraph illustrating their favourite verse, perform the poem as a class, explore techniques in it that they can use in their own writing and much more.
