Literacy - Performance Poetry

This week in Literacy we will be looking at performance poems. We will start at looking at a poem that links to our work on Romans.

Look at the first verse. How might we perform it? Can we make our own verse for it?

This is a song for Caesar’s men

Who like a rhyme, every now and then

To tell of how they marched the world

Did you know the floors of Roman buildings were often richly decorated with mosaics? (Tiny coloured stones ).
