Topaz Class – Year 6

Year 6 began the term by exploring the poem ‘The River’ written by Valarie Bloom. We listened to some river sounds and looked at different rivers from around the world. We wrote about what we saw, how it made us feel and talked about what emotions the sounds and pictures evoked.

We used this discussion to write our own river poems, based on Valerie Bloom’s poem. 

Here are a few of our poems.

The River by Melricia
