L.C. To recognise and analyse different forms of poetry.

 

Earlier this year, we looked at poetry.

 

Can you name the types of poetry we have already looked at?

 

 

Previously, we have looked at Limericks and Kennings.

 

Can you identify which of the following poems is a Kenning and which is a Limerick?

 

Poem 1

 

Challenge-setter

Whistle-blower

Coffee-drinker

Board-writer

Book-ticker

Big-yawner

Children-helper

 

Poem 2

 

"There was an Old Man with a beard,

Who said, 'It is just as I feared!

Two Owls and a Hen,

Four Larks and a Wren,

Have all built their nest in my beard!'"

 

Here are the main features of both Kennings and Limericks.

 

 

You are going to need to use these in the task today.

 

On Seesaw, you have been given some poems. Can you identify the key features and type of poetry that is being used?
