World Poetry Day is celebrated on 21 March, and to coincide with that we are offering free copies of our e-book, “How to be Brilliant at Writing Poetry”, which normally sells for £10.99.

How to be Brilliant at Writing Poetry is written for Key Stage 2 classes and contains self-explanatory, ready-to-use photocopiable sheets that will inspire your pupils to create some fantastic poems. Each sheet is a self-contained activity, so it is easy to integrate them into your planning.

Whether your pupils are struggling to put pen to paper, lack inspiration or need practical help with developing a particular skill, such as making the poem scan or using similes and alliteration, you will find this book invaluable. Forms of poetry covered include limericks, haiku, riddles, cinquains and many more.

The open-ended activities provide pupils with a purpose for writing and help them to develop a clear sense of whom they are writing for. In this way, children will feel ownership of their poems and will want to share them with a wide audience, both in written and spoken form.

There are more details on the book and samples pages to download on our website at: https://www.brilliantpublications.co.uk/book/how-to-be-brilliant-at-writing-poetry-160.
