A note from Mrs Hogan
Welcome to our website. Just a bit of background on the poetry you will read on our blogspot...
We have been learning about using writing tools to hook our audiences. We planned about the colour orange together and we explored some "word associations" that are related to our ideas about orange. This is why some of the poems have similar lines/ideas. However your child has written their poem unaided from these ideas. The tools they used (similes, metaphors, onomatopoeia and alliterations) were totally their work.
Please post feed back to your child (and any others you feel inspired by). Please put your name with your comment. We would love positive feedback but would also value questions about our poems like "what do you mean by..."
I know you're going to love what you read and i am very proud of all of our poets efforts!

Orange is resting in the sun and bees are buzzing by.
It is sizzling lava, not to mention smoked salmon.
It is a big orange basketball bouncing up and down, up and down.
Orange is a beautiful monarch butterfly, flying high in the sky.
You know orange is unique but wait there's more...
Orange orangutans playing in cages.
It is the sun set and fire, big bad fire that can burn down a house.
Sometimes orange can be bad and good!

Orange is as careful as a monarch butterfly, with its big wide wings that are graceful as it flies.

Orange is as joyful as watching the sunset just before dark.
