Shared Poem - a way of extending on topic work

Although we were focusing on Guy Fawkes as our performance piece for the school concert, I wanted to consolidate and extend knowledge of a range of celebrations around the world, so I chose the context of shared poem to achieve this.

When we explored the idea of Holi, for example, we danced to popular Bollywood music around the theme and we held our own mini Holi festival on the Friday.

Returning to this post to delete the Flickr album - It was sad when Flickr introduced its limit of 1,000 pics. I have chosen a photo from our Holi celebration.
