Poem, poem my kingdom for a poem. . .

Hello!


This week in Grade 3/4A we have had a very busy week working on poems.  Last week we all wrote a "free verse poem" - our fantastic poems are on display outside the classroom!  This week we have worked on "Ode" writing; the lyrical poetic form that praises someone or something.  Have a read of Erin C's delightful "Ode to a Pizza" below. . .




Ode to a Pizza

Oh delicious pizza with your topping,
I always buy you when I go shopping.
Your lovely cheese, your tomato paste,
Goes all the way down to my waist.

Oh! That pizza was so yummy,
It taste so good in my tummy.
Maybe next time I will eat,
A pizza that has a bit of meat.

Welcome back for another exciting term in Grade 3/4A!

Hello !


Welcome back to what we're all sure will be en exciting term in 3/4A.  We are currently looking forward to our upcoming Museum Excursion next Thursday the 24th, where we will spend time exploring our new topic of Australia's traditional people.  Melbourne Museum has a fabulous indigenous garden walk, and we will spend time exploring that when we are there, as well as looking at Melbourne's transport (a tie in to finishing our topic last term).


We are also all busy reading for the Premier's Reading Challenge: remember to log your books in at home or at school.  All students have been issued with a password earlier on in the year, and are expected to have logged in all the fabulous reading they have been doing.


Cheerio for now -


Ms Jolly and Grade 3/4A
