Autumn / ngahuru is well and truly here and this week we wrote poems to acknowledge the season. To begin our writing we had to stand outside on a cold autumn morning and look southward. There in the distance we could see the Southern Alps and Aoraki, Mount Cook. To the west we could see the Tasman Sea rolling ashore. Our northern view was of the Twelve Apostles, the hills above Greymouth, also known as the two tuatara. We hope you enjoy our writing.
WALT use a range of language features such as simile, metaphor, alliteration and personification.
Context: Autumn Poetry
Success Criteria: We will write a free verse poem to express our experience of a Tai Poutini autumn. The poem will include our choice of language features but it must also contain information that tells the reader where we are in the world. We may choose to use te reo Māori to enhance our writing.
