We felt inside the mystery bins and wrote down words we thought of! It was very gooey!! But, we came up with some fantastic language.

So, what were we feeling?
6
Two different buckets: one had wallpaper paste the other had shredded paper and water mixed.

We looked at all the words we had gathered on the posters and thought about how Sludge River would be if it felt like that. We took our fantastic language and wrote some brilliant river shaped poems. We hope you enjoy reading through them.

Crystal River The river is now mushy, The river is now slimy,
It used to be good, But now it’s bad. It is full of rubbish, And full of sludge, I felt sad that the Animals will die It is very dark Please improve it As it is very stinky and horrible Billy Walker Age 7 The destruction of Crystal river Oozing slowly down Smelly, slippery and gooey This river was crystal clear But we have polluted it oh dear Horrible, sticky and wet Mushy, Slimy, cold dirty and sludgy We are making you better and crystal clear again Lovely Sparkling and clean Gleaming in the sun We are very proud and glad This river is clean again See this river has changed And you can do the same.
