• Read aloud the poem from Listening Texts on page 123 to pupils. Discuss how we know it is a poem not a story ( short lines; rhymes; the way it is laid out on the page ). Point out that not all poems rhyme. • Tell them that a group of lines in a poem is called a verse . • Make pupils aware of different text types .
