YEAR 5 POETRY UNIT
  • WEEK ONE

2
During todays lesson
  • We will
  • Review our previous learning by showing we
    recognise the features of this style of poetry
    (T6)
  • Continue to read a range of narrative poetry (T4)
  • Distinguish between homophones (W6)
  • During independent work, you will
  • Use the structure of a poem to write an extension
    based on this (T12)

3
So what have we learnt so far?
  • introductory verse
  • characters
  • storyline
  • chronological series of events
  • often have an easily identifiable rhythm
  • sometimes rhyming couplets
  • punctuation to aid expression when reading aloud
  • Narrative poems are
  • poems that tell a story
  • Features of narrative poetry can be

How the Bumble-Bee Got His Stripes
  • By Nick Toczek

5
How the Bumble-Bee got His Stripes
  • On the day that the world began,
  • Each of the creatures was shown
  • All the colours of the universe
  • And all were told to choose
  • Which of these they wanted for themselves.

6
How the Bumble-Bee got His Stripes
  • Well, that day the elephant
  • Thought carefully and chose to be grey,
  • But the bumble-bee
  • Just bumbled around and buzzed around
  • And couldnt make up his mind
  • And the yellow sun shone so brightly
  • That the bumble-bees bum became yellow

7
How the Bumble-Bee got His Stripes
  • And that night the goldfish
  • Thought carefully and chose to be golden,
  • But the bumble-bee
  • Just bumbled around and buzzed around
  • And couldnt make up his mind
  • And the black night grew so dark
  • That the bumble-bees hips became black.

8
How the Bumble-Bee got His Stripes
  • And the next day the cricket
  • Thought carefully and chose to be green,
  • But the bumble-bee
  • Just bumbled around and buzzed around
  • And couldnt make up his mind,
  • And the yellow sun shone so brightly
  • That the bumble-bees waist became yellow

9
What have you noticed?
  • Share your ideas with a partner
  • Think about our previous lessons on narrative
    poetry

10
So what have we noticed ?
  • On the day that the world began,
  • Each of the creatures was shown
  • All the colours of the universe
  • And all were told to choose
  • Which of these they wanted for themselves

Like a narrative story opening .. this verse
tells the reader who, where, what, when, why
11
So what have we noticed ?
  • In the first line of each verse a new animal is
    introduced
  • Well, that day the elephant
  • And that night the goldfish
  • And the next day the cricket
  • The passing of time is also shown in the first
    line, just as you would when you start a new
    paragraph in a story.

12
So what have we noticed ?
  • To emphasise the bumble-bees behaviour, the poet
    uses repetition in each verse.
  • But the bumble-bee
  • Just bumbled around and buzzed around
  • And couldnt make up his mind
  • This also makes the reader question what might
    happen next. Just like in a build up section of a
    story.

13
So what have we noticed ?
  • The passing of time is also shown in each verse
    with the alternate use of day and night

The sun makes part of the bumble-bees body
yellow where as the dark sky makes it black
14
In your independent work,
  • You will write the next verses of How the
    Bumble-Bee Got His Stripes with a partner
  • But first.
  • Lets take a closer look at some of the words
    within the poem

15
Each of these words can be spelt at least one
other way and still sound exactly the same.Can
you think of the other spellings and explain
their meaning?
for
sun
so
waist
night
16
Words like these are called HOMOPHONES
  • Can you think of any others?
  • How about
  • there their
  • hear here
  • threw through

17
Now its over to you!
  • Write the next verses of How the Bumble-Bee Got
    His Stripes with a partner.
  • You have approximately 20 minutes

Use the writing frame to help you.
18
To finish our lesson
  • Lets share an example or two of our narrative
    poetry extensions.
  • And recap what the term homophone means
  • Homophones are words with common pronunciation
    but different spelling
  • In tomorrows Literacy lesson, we will read the
    real ending of the poem and focus more upon
    homophones, this time within sentences.

19
  • Well done everyone!
