The Main Idea - ANZAC Poems

This week for reading we had to read poems. The poems we read were The Soldier Who Never Returned, Spirit Of ANZAC, In Flanders Field and Poem For Remembrance Day. Nazella and I worked together to find out the main idea and the evidence of what the main idea was. To help us find out about the main idea was think about the author's purpose, look at the title. look at the pictures, look at the first and last sentence and look for the repetition of words or phrases. A main idea means what the poem is about and the author's purpose. Our LI: for this task was to find a main idea of a poem.
