Extension Activity of the Week 13

This week: Acrostics

A definite favourite with my year seven class, this simply involves inviting them to create a poem, in which the first letter of each line spells out a key word or phrase. The longer the phrase, the more challenging – and if you can include a word with an X in it, all the better! This activity encourages pupils to use words imaginatively and make connections between topics.
