Dinosaur Haiku's.

 

Room 6 students were challenged to produce a 3-lined Haiku as an optional extra for homework last week. 

 


Haiku poems date from 9th century Japan to the present day. Haiku is more than a type of poem; it is a way of looking at the physical world and seeing something deeper, like the very nature of existence.


  Haiku Format:  

Line 1: 5 syllables describes the subject.    

Line 2: 7 syllables tells of the action.        

Line 3: 5 syllables tells about thoughts or feelings.

Here are the results:

Triceratops
Bony head, three horns.
Stomping, smashing with its head.
