Room 10 wrote poems about their house.
Just before lockdown Room 10 read a poem called My House. We wrote our own poems about our houses and what was above, under, beside and in our houses.
We then drew and painted houses using watercolours. Here are some of our poems. If you would like to read more come into Room 10 and check out our display our retreat.
My house
Above my house there is a bird swooping in the wind.
Beside my house are trees dancing in the wind.
Below my house there are worms digging in the dirt.
Around my house there is a garden with fresh vegetables.
Inside my house is a loving family.

My House
Above my house birds are flapping their wings.
Beside my house sun flowers shine.
Below my house my dogs run.
Around my house bushes are filled with berries.
Inside my house is love and me
By Korbyn
My House
Above my house are butterflies fluttering in the wind.
Beside my house is a cat.
Below my house are rocks.
Around my house are bushes.
Inside my house is all my family and my cat.
By Jordyn
My House
Above my house is the moon glistening on my roof.
Beside my house are cars rumbling like monsters.
Below my house is a creepy basement with rats in it.
Around my house is a beautiful garden waiting to be seen.
Inside my house is love.
By Paige
My house
Above my house there is stinky smoke from the chimney.
Beside my house are bees buzzing along sucking up nectar.
Below my house is treasure tucked underneath the dirt.
Around my house are long vines growing tall on my wall!
Inside my house are my cats scratching my couch.
By Hadlee
My House
Above my house is a beautiful rainbow as high as the clouds.
Beside my house are trees swirling in the wind.
Below my house is dirt that goes down to who knows where.
Around my house is an electric fence ready to zap someone.
Inside my house is my favorite family.
By Mya
My House
Above my house the sun’s burning my roof.
Beside my house is my trampoline waiting for someone to play on it.
Below my house there is a secret basement.
Around my house there is a secret path to get out.
Inside my house there are lots of toys.
By Brylee
My house
Above my house is a parachute gliding.
Beside my house is my trampoline waiting for someone to play on it.
Below my house is treasure buried under the dirt.
Around my house are birds singing in the trees.
Inside my house is my dog and cat lying in front of the fire.
By Leo
My house
Above my house are clouds drifting like a hoverboard.
Beside my house are cats fighting and hissing.
Below my house is dark and dirty.
Around my house are trees dancing in the wind.
Inside my house there is lot of love.
