You can sign up for free here: https://www.simonmole.com/participate • Buy my book I Love My Bike (for age 2-7): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Love-My-Bike... • Buy my book Kites (for age 4-8): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kites-Simon-... • This is a fun activity to try near the start of a lesson - it gets kids working together to quickly generate ideas, and hopefully gets across the important message that settling for the first word you think of isn't always the best idea. • Reinforcing the message that slang kids use with their friends could work well in a poem is an exciting hook too, and I've found it particularly successful with kids who think poetry is boring, or tend not to be so keen to get their ideas down on the page. • It uses a hip hop beat to spice up the competition towards the end, and as ever this is made my mate Tom Caruana - an internationally renowned hip hop producer, who you can find out more about here: https://www.teasearecords.net/tom-car...
