Here
is a selection from our LS1 students, aged just 10 to 12. I’m
astounded by the maturity of their writing, with phrases such as “My life is a
tunnel, where there are dark moments”, or "My family are oceans, they swallow attackers up for me." Wow!
My
Life
My
life is a journey,
every
day is a new place.
My
life is a lesson,
where
I learn as I grow.
My
life is a party,
having
fun and being happy.
My
life is a tunnel,
where
there are dark moments.
My
life is an ocean,
with
hard tasks.
My
life is a jungle,
where
there are dangers to face.
My
life is a road,
with
an end.

Family
My
family are blankets,
they
keep me warm when I’m cold.
My
family are warriors,
they
keep me safe all the time.
My
family are mice,
they
keep quiet when I’m ugly in my heart.
My
family are homes,
they
always welcome me back to their hugs.
My
family are lights,
they
guide me through the darkness.
My
family are forests,
they’re
camouflaged so that enemies won’t see me.
My
family are oceans,
they
swallow attackers up for me.

My Computer Poem
My
computer is a computer,
but
it is so much more.
My
computer is an arcade,
where
I can play games.
My
computer is a dictionary,
where
I can find information.
My
computer is a cinema,
where
I can watch a movie.
My
computer is a map,
shows
me how the earth looks.
My
computer is a newspaper,
shows
me what happened these days.
My
computer is a friend,
it
gives me a lot of benefits.
