Newsround’s Shanequa Paris and poet Tomfoolery take over Imperial War Museum North in Manchester for a special literacy Live Lesson to mark Remembrance Day. Special guest and Children’s Laureate Joseph Coelho will be challenging the presenters and viewers to write an original poem exploring why we still remember.\n\nShanequa, Tom and a team of young poets learn about the history of Remembrance Day and are tasked to find inspiration for their poem. They explore artefacts in the museum and hear from former Royal Marine Commando and presenter JJ Chalmers, who will share his own experiences and explain what Remembrance Day means to him.\n\nThroughout the programme, Joseph also explores remembrance memorials and poetry in his home town of Folkestone, culminating in a reading of his original poem.\n\nInspired by this Live Lesson, children aged 7-11 are encouraged to write their own original poems for Remembrance Day using the prompts and templates provided in the episode.
