📚 Part 1: Learn & Identify

WALT: Understand alliteration and spot it in short sentences.

Success Criteria: I can explain what alliteration is and find words that start with the same sound.

1. Which sentence shows alliteration?

Busy bees buzz by the begonias.

The cat sat on the mat.

I like to eat my lunch.

2. What does alliteration mean?

Words that rhyme at the end of a line.

Words that start with the same sound close together.

Sentences that are very long.

3. Listen or read: "Silly seals swim swiftly in the sea." Write the alliterative words from this line.

✏️ Part 2: Brainstorm & Plan

4. Choose a theme for your poem (pick one):

Animals

Food

Weather

School / Playground

5. Which starting sound will you use? (letter(s) or sound) ____
6. List six alliterative words for your theme (try to include adjectives, nouns or verbs). Write one per line:
7. Plan four lines of your poem. Try to use at least two words with your chosen sound in each line.
Line 1:
Line 2:
Line 3:
Line 4:

🎨 Part 3: Finalise & Share

8. Draw a small picture that matches your poem.
9. How will you read your poem aloud? Tick all that apply:

Speak loudly so everyone can hear

Use expression (happy, spooky, excited)

Read slowly so listeners hear the sounds

Add actions or movements

Differentiation: Use the word bank or sentence stems if you need support. Try saying lines aloud first if spelling is tricky.

Extension: Create a second stanza using a different starting sound or combine two sounds (e.g., S and CH) for contrast.

Dyslexia-friendly option: Use a dyslexia-friendly font, wide spacing and say words aloud while writing to help plan.
