This is the poetry my class wrote for this project.
We wrote 2 poems to music, the 3rd one - it starts 'When I caught my words in the wind' was inspired by writing Pie's poem out on a till roll in 3 different colours, cutting it up and waving it in the wind outside. The children then caught the words as their eyes saw them and then wrote them down on their whiteboards. These 'caught' words then generated new poetry!

I love the use of Google Docs presentations to share the children's work... did you make this in class, or did you create it afterwards?
Such a simple way of sharing everyone's work in one place!
I made it as a PPT and printed one for every child, then made it into a google docs for our VLE
It is useful to try everything in practise anyway and I like that here it's always possible to find something new. :)
