He was writing poems about 150 years ago but children still enjoy his poems today.The first poem we are going to look at is called “Bed in Summer” and when you hear it I think you’ll be able to relate to his thoughts about summer bedtimes.Click in the link to hear this poem being read aloud. let’s see what you thought about the poem – answer the “What do you think?” questions on the website.Plan and write a summer bedtime poemToday you are going to become poets just like Robert Louis Stevenson. We are going to make our own poems about what it is like going to bed in summer.First, we are going to collect ideas for our own poem about what it’s like going to bed in summer time. We are going to think about our senses and try to “paint pictures with words”. Use the prompt sheet on the website to help you with your ideas.Now comes the fun part . . . can you use your ideas to make your own poem about going to bed in summer. Your poem does not have to rhyme but you can experiment with this if you’d like to. You should start each new idea on a new line, rather than writing one idea straight after another as you would in a story for example. Getting started . . .You can see my model at the bottom of the planning prompt sheet to give you some inspiration. Comparing poemsThis book is “A Child’s Garden of Verses” – a collection of poems, written for children by Robert Louis Stevenson. A collection of poems is called an anthology.Robert Louis Stevenson was often ill as a child and so he spent lots of time in bed. Consequently, this anthology contains lots of poems inspired by bedtime. We are going to look at two of these poems today. Read “A Child’s Thought” and “Young Night Thought” on the website and think about how these two poems are the same/different. We are going to record what you notice on a Venn diagram (see website). For example, both poems have “Thought” in the title so you would make a note of this in the overlapping section. But “A Child’s Thought” has 2 verses, whilst “Young Night Thought” has 4 verses so you would write these facts in the outer sections of the relevant circles.“Dream Time Parade” poemToday we are going to use the poem “Young Night-Thought” as inspiration for another poem. We are going to imagine our own dream time parade like the one in the poem with “armies, emperors and kings” and “every kind of beast and man”. The poem will be like a list of descriptive phrases for different fantasy people and animals. You can be really imaginative – in dreams, anything can happen!Getting started . . . My Dream Time ParadeAll night long and every night,My dreams are filled with magical sights -Ancient wizards in stardust cloaks,Painted peacocks with dazzling tails, Smoky dragons glaring darklyTOP TIP – use lots of interesting verbs, adjectives and adverbs to bring your characters to life!There is a “Dream Time Parade” writing sheet on the website, if you would like to write your poem on some fancy paper.For Fun – draw an illustration of your “Dream Time Parade” showing all the different characters in your poem .Handwriting“The Swing” is another of Rober Louis Stephenson’s famous poems. ’s focus will be handwriting – we need to be ready for Year 3 and looking to earn a Pen Licence very TipsSit every letter on the line.
