This week in Oaks we have been exploring a well-known narrative poem: The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes, which was written in 1906 but is based a lot earlier.

We looked at the story within the poem, compared parts, summarised events and even gave our opinions and thoughts at different moments.

We had a great time learning the poem and performing parts of it in small groups. We thought about our volume, tone and pace to make it more interesting. We even recording our performances which can be listened to below using our QR codes.

We were extremely proud of all hard work and really enjoyed learning and performing it.
