Salty Children

Salty Children are classroom spice 
important flavour in our life,
Salty Children turn white when shaken,
and enjoy sizzling bacon,
Salty Children like small spaces
but grind their teeth with angry faces,
Salty Children love melting snow
dancing in drifts makes them glow,
They love sunbathing on hot beaches
leaving white outlines
where their body leaches,
Salty Children are often 
misunderstood
when people expect
sugar sweet good,
Adding weight is not
their thing
Zest and zing 
is what they bring.
WALT: to write a strong poem in the style of the "mismatched poetry" form and demonstrating command of some literary devices.

Success criteria:
  • To choose a mismatched noun paired with an adjective or verb.
  • Able to deliberately use and describe two literary devices within my poem.
  • Create a list of mismatched phrases and choose the best 6-8
  • Able to craft the phrases together and break lines in well thought out places,
  • Be able to publish the poem with illustrations that follow creative commons zero guidelines.

I used the literacy devices of metaphors, alliteration, repetition and finished with simple rhyme to emphasise my final point.
