This morning we had fun doing Haiku poems together. Haikus must have only three lines, with five syllables in the first and third lines, and seven in the second line. We did What Am I? haikus. Have a read and see if you can work out what the different animals/things are. I’ll put the answers up tomorrow. 🙂 Kids, you may like to try your own and send them to me so we can try and guess your What Am I? haikus.
Sam’s Haiku
Humungous front teeth
Massive mouth and big body
The great river king
Jake’s Haiku
I am smooth as glass
Colder than a soaked page
I come out at night
Rosie’s Haiku
Time for me to die
I fall softly to the ground
On the soft carpet.
Dad heard us reading out ours while he was in his office and did his own!
Working hard with round feet
Powerful, though I must drink
Off we go, beep beep!
(You’re not meant to rhyme them, but Chris said his just came out that way. :)) Rosie – 12 May 2011
