Celebrating National Poetry Day at AVA
This week, our KS3 literacy classes enjoyed a special poetry lesson to celebrate National Poetry Day. This year’s theme is Wonder, encouraging students to explore the power of words, imagination and creativity.
National Poetry Day is a fantastic opportunity to inspire a love of poetry and creative writing. Research from the National Literacy Trust shows that children who read poetry are more likely to write poetry themselves, while those who write poetry are also more likely to enjoy writing more generally.
Our students had the chance to explore poetry, experiment with language and discover where their own creativity could take them. See less
