Children worked together in small groups to try and create a haiku poem about 'Wind'. This is what they came up with...

Wind

Wind blows in my face

It whistles along the green leaves,

It twirls around me.

Qwenton, Caleb, Hwi Seong

Wind

The soft wind whispers

Moving branches on the trees

Birds fly away home.

Dylan, Kiijahna, Jacob C

Wind

Dancing in the sky

Twirling, whirling in my face

Blows me off my feet.

Amelíe, Briana

Wind

Wind dancing gently

Roughly whooshing through the air

Air gentle but cool.

Nicholas, Thomas & Julia

Wind

Twirling, swirling wind,

The rough wind blows violently,

The calm wind blows slow.

Marek, Billy, Alexia

Wind

Dancing whistling wind

Wind blowing in our faces

Twirling, whirling wind.

Chloe, Hannah, Hazel

The Wind

Whistling gentle wind

Silently but violently

Powerful and rough.

Ella, Amanda, Harriet

The Wind

Violently gusting

Swishing, twirling wind dances

Blows away cobwebs.

Harry, Will, Jacob Mc
