About this title

Synopsis

Spotlight on Poetry: Classic Poems offers a balanced and varied collection of classic and traditional poems from the the 17th to the 20th century, including some of the best-loved poems in the English language. Classic Poems 1 is suitable for ages 5-7 (Year 1-2/P2-3).

The Classic Poems collections feature poets such as Shakespeare, Rossetti, Walter de la Mare, Wordsworth, Blake and Auden, as well as traditional children’s rhymes and riddles. Each collection is available as both a pupil reader and as a Big Book. The readers contain all the material in the Big Book plus some additional material, for example additional poems or full versions of poems that appear as extracts in the Big Book.

Classic Poems 1 contains the following poems:
The Elephant by Hilaire Belloc
One Potato, Two Potato (Trad)
Betty Botter (Trad)
She Sells Sea Shells (Trad)
The Tickle Rhyme (Ian Serraillier)

There are 3 levels in each strand, corresponding to Years 1/2 (Classic Poems 1), Years 3/4 (Classic Poems 2) and Years 5/6 (Classic Poems 3).
The poems have been carefully chosen to appeal to the age ranges.

The collections meet the range of objectives for poetry and the National Literacy Strategy as specified in the Literacy Framework. They have been selected by David Orme and Brian Moses, two well-known children’s poets.

Each level is accompanied by Teacher’s Notes that link poems to objectives in the National Literacy Framework, providing creative teaching ideas and photocopiable Activity Masters.

There are two other strands in the Spotlight on Poetry series: ‘Poems Around the World’, and ‘What kind of Poem?’.
