LEFT BEHIND ON THE BEACH

L.I. - Look at descriptive language used in poetry

Look at active verbs

Left behind on the beach:

two scoops of holes

for the sea to fill,

two mini holes

for the crabs to climb.

Left behind on the beach:

giggling waves, fists of shells,

treasures of seaweed necklaces,

diamonds of sun

and the crust of a sandwich:

seagull supper.

Left behind on the beach:

a summer holiday, carrying

beach towels, sunscreen and hats,

a beach chair for mum

and binoculars for dad.

Left behind on the beach:

the in/out breathing of waves,

the screech of seagulls,

the mizzle of mist

and somewhere out on the reef

the anchor of a long ago ship.

Left Behind on the Beach

Left behind on the beach:

Dozens of sea shells sparkling on the sand.

Dark green seaweed coming from the sea.

Lumpy sand , is good for making high sandcastles.

Left behind on the beach:

Rubbish lying around on the sand and

Students wonderful sandcastles.

Sticks for writing names on the sand

Creepy crabs crawling around quickly and making tiny holes.

Left behind on the beach:

A beach chair for mum,

A hand - fan for aunty

A poly - bin for our fine lunch to munch on,

and a big tree for some shade to sit under.

Left behind on the beach:

Waves splashing smoothly,

Splash! I dived into the water

Oh no someone fell out of the yellow kayak.

What are wonderful day full of adorable children.
