Images of Insects
Blue Bottle Buzz
Like a whirlwind of noiseIt fuzzes, tumbling and
bumbling.Like an overfed dot it stopsBuzzing, fat and fumbling.
Like a crackling radioIt continues it’s sound,
Blue bottle as loud as a bandHumming as you dance
around.
By K. Broad
Fly of FireFirefly,
Like a burning torch,Sparkling
Like coloured lights,In dark,
Night it shines,As the North star, glowing brighter.
Firefly, Like a flickering flame,
Burning Like orbs of fire,
In blackness, It shimmers, as embers,
floating higher. by K. Broad
Dragonfly
As elegant as the sunshine, over the pond like a dream,Wings like blue sapphires,
like moonstone in the breeze,As graceful as the dancer,
over the reeds like a beam,Hovers like a humming bird, like scent in flowered trees.
As beautiful as the twilight, over the lilies so new,
As dazzling as the water, on pebbles like a jewel,
Flies like a morning song, like grasses fresh with dew,
Landing like a breath of wind, over the air so cool.
By K. Broad
Plenary: Day ThreeWe are going to change the similes for metaphors in the

L.O. To convey feelings, reflections or moods in a poem through careful choice of words and phrases.
Think about the poems we have studied about the fly.
They all have these features of poetry;
• Different moods• Express feelings• A pattern• An individual style• A message• Descriptive language (simile/metaphor)
Task:Today we are going to write our own poems about a fly to
include the features of poetry we have studied.
Imagine a fly…any type of fly!
Think about the mood and message of your poem.- Do you hate the fly?- Feel sorry for it?- Find the fly disgusting?- Think they are funny?
Write a selection of words that describe your fly.
Think of a simile or metaphor about your fly.
Link the words together into phrases.
Begin to put them into an order, how will it begin and end?
Toolkit: For writing a poem about a fly!
• Use an individual poetic style• Create a message for the reader• Convey feelings and moods• Use descriptive language (simile/metaphor)• Link the poem to the title• Decide upon rhymes and sound patterns• Make careful choices of words• Make me want to read it again and again!
Plenary: Analysing our own work.
Look at the toolkit,How many would you give yourself out of 8?
Swap poems with someone else,- read and re-read their poem- Look at the toolkit, how many would you give
them out of 8?- Read the poems aloud to each other, which are
the best parts of the work?- Discuss the two poems with your partner, how
could each of you improve your work?
Spider, Spider!
Close your eyes and think of a spider.
Your spider might be a money spider, small and lucky.
Your spider might be a jungle spider, huge and deadly.
Your spider may be red and stripy, with a painful bite.
Your spider may be a harvest spider, hiding in fright!
By K. Broad
Spider, Spider!Spider, spider in the dead of night,
Creeping silently ready to fight.
As black as coal with eyes of steel,
Moving closer to catch his meal.
Spider, spider a warrior stare,
Shadow floorboards hiding there.
As dark as night and nearer still,
The spider’s is web ready to kill!
By Mrs. K. Broad
