Key Question Week 10: What makes a poem powerful?
Key Text for Linked Learning: Talking Turkeys – Benjamin Zephaniah
Linked Learning: English, Geography, Computing
In English, children will explore the different types of poems and their structures. They will explore
haikus, limericks, free verse, nonsense poems, narrative poems and sonnets. They will investigate
the rules for each poem and what makes them effective. They will then begin to plan their own
poem centred around nature. Children will begin by choosing their structure then will investigate
key words and vocabulary they can use. They will then incorporate their words into a poetic style;
checking to make sure it makes sense and follows the rules. Children will write their poems and
then will perform them for the class or small groups. In SPaG, children will have fun exploring
figurative language: alliteration, onomatopoeia, similes and metaphors; using them in short
sentences and creating funny poems containing each example. In Geography, children will explore
deforestation and will begin to research the positive and negative impact of deforestation on the
local community, national community and world community. Children will link their ideas of
deforestation with the themes of nature from the poetry we have looked at. Children will use their
knowledge of rainforests to support their construction of a poem about rainforests. Children will
perform Talking Turkey’s by Benjamin Zephaniah on iMovie, creating transitions between each
speaker and will include text and audio to accompany the piece.
Maths: Children will represent fractions and decimals as percentages using diagrams and will begin
to identify equivalences between fractions, decimals and percentages. Children will also represent
fractions as percentages using their multiplication and division knowledge to identify 1%, 10%, 5%
and 20%. Children will look back at line graphs and will create a line graph which plots the rate of
change when squaring and cubing numbers.
Science: I can identify the gestation period of some animals and compare them with humans,
children will identify the stages of human development from foetus to adulthood.
History: N/A
Geography: See above.
Computing: See above.
Music: Children will think about and discuss the features of classical music that they can hear and/or
detect in a piece of music by Holst, Tchaikovsky or Mozart that they heard last week (e.g. the
development of instruments such as the piano or clarinet).
Art: Children will use their previously developed pencil line/sketching techniques (including their
understanding of how to use lines to draw objects in proportion relevant to each other) to create a
still-life sketch. They will create their own composition, taking into account the content of all areas
of the scene they are going to draw, including the foreground, middle ground and background. They
will then use shading techniques to add a 3-dimensional effect to their drawing.
Design Technology: N/A
PDW / R.E: Children will understand how secrets can be harmful and what to do if they are keeping
a big secret. Children will look at a range of scenarios which involve secrets and will discuss how
they would react in each scenario.
P.E: Children will use the correct underarm bowling action when playing rounders. Children will also
show the correct stance for striking a ball in rounders, learning the basic rules of the game and
implementing them.
MFL: N/A
Vocabulary:
Gestation Foetus Genetic             Sonnet Limerick Haiku Verse Stanza Syllables
