Poetry Competition

I know lots of children are busy selecting their poem for the poetry competition; its always enjoyable hearing the range of poetry and poets that the children choose. I thought you may enjoy looking at the  Poetry By Heart website and watch some children aged 7-10 performing poems. This site suggests poems to perform and you may be inspired by some of the performances!

Remember your teachers will be shortlisting the best ten from each class on 20th March. Everyone is expected to take part, and your teachers can help you select a poem if you are struggling to find one.

Well done for working hard to learn your times tables!

Year 2 are expected to know their 2, 5 and 10 times tables with some children learning their 3 times tables too.
