This term in our English lessons, we have been reading many novels and non-fiction books linked to our World War 2 topic and using them as inspiration for our own writing,

For two weeks, we focussed on Poetry and read many poems written in and about World War Two. We looked closely at the features of the poems, the language used to create imagery and how the poems made us feel.

Inspired by the poems that we had read, we have written our own World War 2 poems, focussing on using expanded noun phrases and figurative language such as similes, metaphors, personification and onomatopoeia.

We hope you enjoy reading ourΒ  poems.Β  Β How do they make you feel?
