Acrostic poem arguments

I recently taught a Year 6 whose theme topic was rainforest. Their English text type was expositions so it was a perfect opportunity to tie the two in together with some research on what the biggest threats to the rainforest were. 

They then designed some posters to create awareness of their rainforest threat (visual arts) and used that as a reference to write their exposition. These students had plenty of information because they used an acrostic poem in their awareness poster. 

It's so great to use a theme across as many KLAs as possible to really incorporate as many of their strengths as possible as well as tap into their interests.
