NZ Get Writing

We have signed up for NZ Get Writing through Schoolkit. They send you lots of activities to do and when we are finished, we send some of them to a buddy school. We have been buddied up with West Harbour School in Auckland.
Our first task was to write a short, punchy poem similar to William Carlos Williams. Our poem had to include something we had got into trouble for in the past. 
We published these using Canva and made a Screencastify of us reading our peom aloud. We had a lot of fun recalling some of the naughty things we did in the past. You can read and listen to our poems on our individual blogs. Here's William Carlos Williams' one we used to format our own ones.

    We are taking part in the "Get NZ Writing" programme too. We enjoyed hearing about the naughty things each of us has done. I like your idea of publishing your poems on canva and I would love to see some examples of these. Have a great rest of the week.
