# Rehearsing The Highwayman

We have loved reading The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes and have written our own verses and stories based on this. Now we are getting ready to perform this poem. We have all learnt the first and last verses and are working in groups to prepare two more verses. We have looked at examples of performance poetry and especially loved the way Michael Rosen uses gestures, facial expression, dynamics and actions as well as his voice. Hopefully this will inspire us when we do our own performances!  Watch this space as more will be coming!
