Rainforest Poems

Year 3 have been working on poems about rainforest animals and lots of children finished and illustrated them this afternoon. We've been working hard to use effective words and I was SO pleased with the poems.

I can only put a few here, but you'll be able to see the rest, with illustrations, on the walls at school.

Jaguar

A quick flash going past in the night,

Jaguar running through the rainforest,

Glaring at opponents while tearing into its meal,

Brow rising for prey.

A jaguar runs, fast as lightning,

Roaming jaguar through the dark.

In the forest

In the forest a creature slices through flesh using its scalpel sharp beak,

In the forest a creature focuses on prey, as beady luminous eyes gaze out of the emerald leaves,

In the forest, a creature's great wings blot out the sun, cloaking the forest with jet black shadow,

In the forest a squawking sound striking fear amongst the other animals,

In the forest a harpy eagle glides.
