Katy

A Ferrari speeding through red lights,

The first rocket to touch the moon,

The first taste of fresh lemon drizzle,

A new Beth Tweddle winning gold.

A Smurf from the Smurf Movie,

Cooler than a breeze in the wind,

Hotter than a volcano exploding.

Some letters about School Uniform

School uniform is something that divides opinion. Before Mounts went off to Croft Farm we wrote a letter to the incoming Headteacher to express our opinions and persuade her that the school uniform should be kept or scrapped:

What Stars are….. by Katy

A star leads you to the top of a Christmas tree.
A star guides you to victory.
A star is a dream.
A star is a volcano of gold.
Find a shooting star and never let it go.
 

Katy’s Confession

My Mistake

I made a mistake when I left the 
hair dryer on….
 
I made a mistake when I let my posonos
snake out….
 
I made a mistake when I let my frind play
with a tiger….
 
I made a mistake when I let my mouse
sleep at the nexdore nabours house….
 
I think I made a mistake when I said
to the seals you can sleep with a cilla whale….
 

When the Teacher Turns His Back

Yesterday we wrote a list poem, using ideas from Pie Corbett and Paul Cookson’s ‘When the Teacher Turns Their Back’ as an example. Our version doesn’t rhyme. Here are some of the best examples collected into a group poem:

When the Teacher Turns His Back –
 
Louisa paints the pirate flag bright pink,
Meadow does the Mobot, after triumphantly winning the ‘Penguin Race’,
Lizzie, thinking she is Spiderwoman, climbs the walls and swings on the projector,
Katy feeds Skye’s snack to her orange hairy monster,
Luke jumps from the table, grabs on to the pirate flag saying “Aha, I’m Jack Sparrow”,
The whole class move the tables to a boxing ring and take it in turns to have fist fights,
William turns into a zombie and eats everyone’s heads,
Alex falls asleep in the stock cupboard.
 

Yes, we have our own pirate flag in Mounts,
just by the door.
