This week we have been learning about Kenning poetry. Did you know, Kenning poems come from language used by the Anglo-saxons and are like riddles? Your reader has to guess the theme of the poem. 

In Holly class, we wrote some brilliantly poetry about animals we hope to see on our upcoming trip. Then, some of us performed our poems to year 2 and year 5. Once we had read our poems they had to use the clues to guess which animals we were talking about. Everyone was able to guess our poem themes because we had used specific vocabulary. 

Can you guess the animal? 

Egg-layer

Ocean-diver

Ice-slider

Snow-waddler

Fish-gobbler

Fin-flapper
