Move aside, Wordsworth, Tennyson and Keats! Our latest writing focus in Key Stage Two has been Poetry and from alliteration to personification, we have succeeded in being poetic sensations!
Year 3 learned how to use alliteration and powerful vocabulary in their poems. I think this poem perfectly presents what a wonderful school St Margaret’s Lee is!

Year 4 used personification and drew inspiration from the five senses to make their poems. I sense that our sports coaches would love this sporty poem!


Year 5 worked on linked language, personification and metaphors. This poem below demonstrates the spark of creativity which poetry creates!


Year 6 wrote poems which used continuous metaphor and thematic language to convey the power of imagination. Being able to conjure up imagery like this, I don’t have to imagine the bright future in store for these young writers!
