This week the children have been looking at the book ‘Freckly Feet and Itchy Knees’ by Michael Rosen. The children have enjoyed making up actions to go along with the verses, playing rhyming games on the computer, thinking up their own rhyming couplets in pairs, writing and reading their own poems, and taking photographs to support the poems. Here are some of the poems the children have written.
