Today we took part in a live lesson listening to famous authors and illustrators discuss their work. We have created some amazing poems about reading using metaphors. We really enjoyed playing a metaphor game where we hunted for matching pairs in class. This afternoon we read an extract from the book ‘ The worst class in the world’ and we watched a clip where the Author Joanna Nadin and the illustrator Rikin Parekh discussed where they draw their ideas from when creating new characters. We were given the names ‘ Paris Battersby’ and ‘Horace Froglet’ and we then used the tips we learnt from the author and illustrator to draw and create these characters. Finally we discussed what makes a good poetry performance and we working in groups to perform poems.
