These Firework Senses Poem mark making prompt sheets will help encourage your children to draw and/or write about their senses and start to get a feel for poetry!

Children can complete them at varying levels. For example, your youngest children may be able to tell you what they see or hear and you can scribe a single word in each box. Some children may like to make marks to represent what they sense and your more developed children may like to write the rest of the sentence thinking about describing words to build a picture in the reader’s mind. Please note, the words do not need to rhyme.

Which colours can you spot? Why not be creative with this resource?…

• If at home, perhaps watching a firework display (outside or from a window), encourage your child(ren) to look out for the colours on the chart and tick them off as they see them.

• Alternatively, watch a recording of a fireworks display and even hit pause to discuss and identify the colours you see.

• For a more physical sensory experience, why not create objects to represent fireworks in a tuff spot or on a trail around your setting/home in the appropriate colours? Children can then tick them off as they find each colour.

• If your children need extending, consider an element of counting and perhaps even tally mark making.

Have fun!

Firework explosion themed size ordering pictures. Intended to be cut out (and ideally laminated) for use by children in repeatable size ordering activities. If you have access to a fuzzy felt board, why not stick velcro tabs on the back so that children can move them around on the board? Alternatively use them as a cut and stick activity (to also strengthen fine motor skills) for the children to take home and discuss with their families using words such as ‘small, smaller, smallest, big, bigger, biggest’.

Onomatopoeic firework word colouring posters. Ideal for use with young children (Phase 1 letters and sounds) to encourage them to develop and experiment with various speech sounds. Also ideal with slightly older children to explore onomatopoeic words (words which phonetically imitate the sound that is made by the object being described). The children will love to make up their own!
