This year, the teachers had their staff photograph taken using a drone. It was a fun experience and we wanted some of the children to experience this technology.
On Monday 12 March, Prep and Year 2 gathered in the play area to watch Mr Ford flying his drone in the carpark.
When we got back to class, 2E wrote a haiku poem about what they had seen.
Haiku is a Japanese poetry form which uses just a few words to capture a moment and create a picture in the reader's mind. It is like a tiny window into a scene much larger than itself.
Traditionally, haiku is written in three lines, with five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line, and five syllables in the third line.
We also included alliteration.
Drone
Staring silently,
Smoothly cutting through the air,
Watching, waiting …. aarrgghh !!!!
