LOVE LETTERS FOR STARSHIP!

Room 18 and Room 10 have been working together to create gorgeous Love Letters to be sent up to Starship Hospital to brighten up the walls of sick children.  This is part of our inquiry into Kind Hearts.  Check out some of our beautiful creations.  Please remember if you have any good condition used clothing or non-perishable food items that you are willing to donate, please bring them to Room 18.

Haiku Poetry

This term we have been learning different types of poetry.  So far we have learnt about a cinquain, a shape poem, a senses poem, haiku poem and an acrostic poem.  We have enjoyed doing poetry because everyone is able to do it! Check out our gorgeous published haiku poems below.

A Haiku poem is a poem that originates from Japan. It is usually about a season or nature.  The first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables and the third line has 5 syllables.
