The poet<\/p>\n has used personification and metaphor, to describe the willow tree and the wind<\/p>\n as two dancing partners. Once you have read the poem, can you fill these gaps?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The arms of the dancer are described as the willow\u2019s _________ .<\/p>\n The feet of the dancer are represented by the ________ of the willow tree.<\/p>\n The ___________ is being used to describe the dancer\u2019s bending back.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The willow and the wind .<\/p>\n Their knowing to move as one <\/p>\n Take a look at a tree in your garden or local area. Can you sketch the tree in your work book and then add labels to your drawing to describe how the tree looks like a person? Here are some metaphors you could try:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – The fingertips of the trees had twitched in the cold air.<\/p>\n – The exhausted, gnarled joints of the bark had become knotted together in pain.<\/p>\n – The outstretched branches reached out towards me in a gentle embrace.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Spelling:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Have a go at the following words that use the endings ‘-cian’, ‘-sion’, ‘-tion’ and ‘-ssion’.Which strategies could you use to practise them? Choose two from the following list:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n\n
\nhumming a tune,
\nhappy in June
\n(when flowers
\nand roses bloom)
\nsipping nectar
\nits favourite food,
\nloved also by bees.
\nThey both enjoy it
\nwith a natural ease.<\/p>\n
\nare natural dancing partners;
\nlook how the willow weeps
\nwith the joy of movement,
\nskillfully rooted to the spot<\/p>\n
\nis in the willow’s supple limbs,
\nbending forwards, backwards,
\nswaying to the wind’s strength
\nleading it this way and that.<\/p>\n\n
