In English, Year 5 have been looking at the poem ‘The Magic Box’ by Kit Wright.
In the first lesson, the children read through the poem and then identified examples of things that they have experienced or would like to experience linked to the five senses.
Next, they developed their ideas by adding descriptive language to create 12 sentences.
Finally, they wrote the sentences onto strips of paper and then arranged them into an order they were happy with.
Year 5 are very proud of their poems, what do you think of them?

The Magic Box
I will put in the box
The stretchy cheese off a cheesy garlic bread
The tangy redsalt off chips
The smell of iside of mcdonals
I will put in the box
The smell of fresh cut grass and fuel off a motorbike
The screaming of a horror movie
Hearing the loud roar off a lion
I will put in the box
The sound of ethiad cheering in the crowd
Seeing your idols like ronaldo or messi
Scoring top bins for your dream team
I will put in the box
Hearing 90s music on the radio
Touching a stingray
The breathing flaming hot fire from a dragon

The Magic Box.
I will put in the box
Autumn leaves under a lengthy layer of snow,
Waking up after a lay in with the sun beating,
Every flavor jelly beans.
I will put in the box
A warm hot water bottle on a cold winter night,
Standing on a beach with the tide submerging my feet,
Candles melting giving off an aroma.
I will put in the box
Cold fresh winter air,
Rainfall beating on my gazebo,
Waves crashing like white horses.
I will put in the box
The sun peeking through maroon autumn trees,
Stepping on fresh crunchy autumn leaves,
The flavor of fresh lemon and caramel sponge cake.

Luxury cherry on my plate ready to be eaten
Watching the sunset rise outside my window

Listening to my favourite song in my room
Holding my favourite fuzzy teddy bear as i fall asleep
The smell of chocolate,making my mouth water
I will put in the box
Mouth-watering cake with lots of icing on top
The sight of the ocean glistening outside my window is wonderful
The sound of the ocean is very calming

A new blanket is realy comfortable
Watermelons are refreshing
Mint is a brilliant scent

The Magic Book
I will put in the box
When you swim in a sparkly blue ocean.
When you sit on an antique golden toilet.
A sweet chocolate rocky bar melting in your mouth.
I will put in the box
When you pear at the hospital room when you are first born.
An iconic football,touches your football boot.
When the huge crowd chants your name.
I will put in the box
When you listen to the dinosaurs last stomp
The smell of rain after a heavy/intense storm.
In the distance you see a golden private jet staring at you.
I will put in the box
When cotton candy dissolves in your mouth.
A rare platinum rolex lies on you arm.
When the house you have always dreamed of is right in front of you.

The Magic Box
I will put in the box…
A smell of the best chocolate cake.
A sip of a royal kings chocolate milkshake.
And the great famous china wall.
I will put in the box…
Hearing the roars of old dinosaurs.
A famous chocolate man that I can hire.
Feeling the hot sun as hot as fire.
I will put in the box…
Touching a furry monkey with my own hand.
Going to my favourite Harry Potter Land.
Hearing the wet waves of famous rivers.
I will put in the box…
Tasting pigs flesh delicious livers.
A nice furry cat that I can feel.
And a banana that I can peel.

THE MAGIC BOX
I will put in my box
The sweet scent of freshly picked tropical fruit,
a beach the colour of gold on an island in the Caribbean
the taste of crisp, yet sweet apples, freshly picked from a nearby apple tree.
I will put in my box
The sound of rain pitter-pattering on a window on a spring’s night,
the taste of only the finest and juiciest of steaks,
the relaxing melody of the finest of classical music.
I will put in my box
The fuzzy sensation of the warmest of winter clothes,
the warm sensation of being in a comfy bed,
the sound of a fire crackling on a cold winter’s night.
I will put in my box
Colossal mountains, higher then Mt. Everest itself,
the scent of the greenest grass on a mountain on a hot summer’s day,
the sound of a baby laughing that brings tears of joy and happiness to all that hear it.

A mouth watering chocolate bar melting in your mouth,
The crashing waves against the tall cliffs.

The scent of delicious chocolate -chip cookies in the warm oven,
Eating scrumptious luxury chocolate cake.

The incredible shape of a smooth colour of the light white moon

A soft stroke of a soothing layer of dogs fur.
