Soundscape poetry

Today we went out and listened carefully to the sounds we could hear outside. We listened for a whole minute, then we made our poem.

Sounds of the outside

Birds tweeting in the trees,
Shuffling in bushes.
Trees rustling, grass swaying, cat meowing.
Tadpoles swimming and playing in the water, bubble bubble.
Car trundling, plane soaring, rumbling over, high.


High up in the bushes, birds tweeting for food, chatter, chatter, chatter.
A choir of birds.
Shouting boys, silent sky.
Bees buzzing past my ear.
Noisy keys.
Cars sweeping by.
Ducks quack, cockerel crows.


Sound search

We spent a minute being silent and searched for sounds around us. These are some of the sounds we heard. Chattering birds, bees buzzing, lawn mower, lorries, shouting boys! Splashing tadpoles. Shuffling. Knocking. Siren. Crunching leaves, jangling keys. Cats, ducks, barking dogs, planes, rumbling wind.
Read Soundscape poetry to see the poem we created.
