Show transcript
The poem ‘Elephant Beat’ tells a story about the adventure of riding an elephant. It has a structured rhythm, which gives it a marching feel. ‘Night Soup’ is a poem about creating an imaginary, magical ‘soup’ made from elements of the night. When performing a poem, we can vary our volume to create different effects. Using expression and gestures can make our performances fun and interesting for the audience to watch.
