READING POEMS FOR FUN

Click on this website to enjoy poetry. POEMS FOR FUN  This is what poems look like.  Make sure that you know how to write a poem instead of a paragraph.

POEM:

Mary had a little lamb

It’s fleece was white as snow

And everywhere that Mary went

The lamb was sure to go.   🙂

 

PARAGRAPH:

Mary lived on a farm.  Her father was a sheep farmer.  Mary had a pet lamb each year that she looked after. Everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.

 

Looking forward to reading your great poems about your own houses.

Mrs Veary 🙂

 

BATTLESHIPS ON A GRID

We are learning about grid references [A1, B3, E5]. We will be looking at grids and working out their co-ordinates.  First we will look at Maths Dictionary for Kids – C for co-ordinates to see which letter or number comes first.  [Challenge question: which is the X and which is the Y axis?]

Then we will be learning how to play battleships with our partners.  When you have played a game with a partner, you can have a go at playing the on-line game below.

BATTLESHIPS – a game to check your grid references.    You need to call out the grid reference before you bomb it.  🙂
