ANZAC

Last week and this week we have been working on our Anzac Poems.

The Year 3 and 4 students have been producing Acrostic Poems, using the letters in ANZAC.

We started by reading stories about Anzac, and getting familiar with what Anzac is about and why it is important to us.

Then we looked for all the adjectives that started with the letters we needed and worked out how we could put them into short sentences. Once we had finished our short sentences we read over them, and corrected our spelling and checked they made sense.

Anzac is the best because in war they fight for NZ and Australia.
New Zealand is the best because it is a great country for people to live in.
Zoom went the bullets and boom went the guns.
Armies fighting in the hot sun.
Can you remember the soldiers who died for us?
