We were learning about writing a environmental poem about sunflowers. Our poem should personalise the sunflower, talk about it like it has human traits and powers. In my poem the sunflower I'm writing about ages with each line. At the beginning it is happy and young, then at the end it sad and old.
I found it easy to make my published writing look spectacular by adding pictures and word art. Filling in the text box black against the gold, gradient background also made the slide look very grand if I do say so myself.
I found it challenging to find a decent start and then continue decently. This was so hard that I ended up spending a whole lesson devoted to changing and fixing up my draft copy. At the beginning I wanted all of the words at the end of each sentence to rhyme so that made things even trickier! Near the end I dumped the idea of rhymes and just went with whatever I came up with in the last ten minutes of the lesson.
Next time if I notice that it is getting really hard and I have tried persevering I should try a different method or style so I can make that change faster.
