Teachers, save “ANZAC POEM” to assign it to your class.

WALT read between the lines (make inferences) using the clues in a piece of poetry. After reading the poem attached, discuss and answer these guiding questions: 1. Why was the kid marching on ANZAC day with medals on his chest? 2. Who or what was a digger? 3. How did the boy's feelings and understanding of marching on ANZAC day with his dad's medals on his chest change by the end of the poem? 4. If you could say one thing to a soldier that went to war to protect our country, what would it be?
