‘What Am I?’ Kenning Poetry
Lorikeets (Y1)
During our Poetry unit in Literacy this week, we have been learning about performance poetry. We moved onto learning about Kenning Poems.
Kennings are like riddles.
They describe something without ever saying what it is.
Each line of the poem is made of a two-word phrase.
The phrases are made up of a noun + a noun or a noun + a verb.
The words are joined by a hyphen.
Watch our performance and see if you can guess what our animal is!
Check back later this week to see performances of more Kenning Poems that we are going to write ourselves!
