Our Autumn Poems 

Autumn

Autumn has taken over the forest,

There is a golden, crunchy carpet on the damp forest floor,

The little russet squirrel perched up on its branch,

Crunching on a small brown hazel nut,

Lots of mushrooms and fungi bursting forth,

Through the carpet of moist decaying leaves,

On the forest floor the anxious hedgehog,

Nervously makes it’s way 

Through the decomposing mountain of mess and fungus,

Enjoying  the misty morning.

By Laoise  Rang 6

Autumn

The golden crisp leaves underneath your feet,

While the fungus lives at the base of the trees.

The colour palette of autumn has arrived,

So has the musky smell.

And the swirling, icy cold sun from northern lands.

The ivy now grasps onto the trees,

Hiding,against the breeze.

At night, owls hoot and crickets creak.

While the crescent moon and twinkling stars

Illuminate the forest floor.

The wind rustles the trees,

While the sun is hazy, as it stumbles and rises

On an autumn morning, in the woods.

By Adam Rang 6

Autumn Poem

Autumn, the time when warm weather turns colder,

Evenings getting longer,

Days getting shorter,

Windy weather rustling the few leaves on the nearly bare trees,

Watching the squirrels gathering nuts

Getting ready for the icy winter

 Listening to the crunch of the leaves,

As you walk along the forest floor

Hear the pitter patter of the squirrel’s feet,

As they scurry up the trees,

About to go into hibernation

Autumn

Why does autumn leave a trace?

Of red , yellow and brown?

Does autumn leave a blanket of leaves because the earth is cold?

Why does autumn leave vibrant scents and musty smells?

Why do the animals steal her precious fruits?

Is autumn playing a big game of hide and seek, with the animals?

Is autumn the queen of the forest, is that why she wears a fiery gold and red cloak?

Class  Cooking Soup in School

On the 20^th of October 2016 we made soup and scones in school.

First we peeled and chopped the vegetables then we put butter in the pot and melted it. After a while one of the other groups started making scones. To make the scones we put cheese, flour, milk ,sugar, baking powder, egg ,butter and water into a bowl. In my group(Ava, Leah, Alannah-Bel and I. We kept on peeling vegetables while three other groups made the scones. When it was little break we went and had lunch. After break we did work until big break then we went back into the hall with the other classes and we drank the soup and ate some scones. This was a great learning experience and I hope we get opportunities like this again.
