This week for reading we did a “Comprehension Practice”.  First we needed to read the paragraph.  Then we continue with answer the questions before moving on to the next ones.  Lastly we needed to highlight were and how we got the answer.  I enjoyed this task because I like reading.

This week for reading our subject was “Compare texts to find similarities and differences” & “Use ideas from both texts to create something new”. First we read a book called “The Way to Play!”After reading the book and discussing it as a group. Then we carried on working on a group slide.

We had to compare the playground in “The Way to Play” with our school’s playground and for similarities and differences in the equipment, layout, and how kids use them. Lastly we needed to create a poster showing our playground and that it includes a drawing or a diagram of our playground.

This weeks subject for reading was  Making Inferences, Identify clues in the text, Recognise what is implied,  Make logical guesses & Explain your reasoning.  After watching a video about Usain Bolt I also needed to pick 5 different key momments to make educated guesses about what might be happening or how characters might be feeling. Then I needed to explain my reasoning and how the clues led me to my conclusions.

This week we’ve been learning about Reading Aloud. Reading Aloud is when the teacher chooses you to read, as you read you may sound like a robot and not have any expression and reading quitly.

And today we have been learning not to read like a Robot and to read with expression and also to read out loud.  I enjoyed this task because I love to design my own DLO.

I really did good at making it simple and also adding the most important rules when reading Aloud, I need to add more colour and better designs to the DLOs I create like this one.

Meaning :

Response – Able? What does it mean? It means really just means if something happens the most important thing is if your Able to Response to what happens.

The word Response – Able came from the word Responsible made by Duffy and his crew when they were playing there show.

Duffy and his group’s show was all about believing in yourself and you can do anything.

Thank you Duffy and your group for performing a show with a great message to me and everyone else especially the little ones.

For writing my group and I were learning idioms similes hyperbole aswell.

Fisrt we explained what is Idioms toagather on the mat.

Then we went off and make a DLO or a google slide explaning what idiom means.

Lastly I was done making my google slide explaning what idioms mean.

I was doing good on making idioms myself but I did not do good on explaning lots about a topic.

But I enjoyed coming up with some idioms.

This week I learned about I can see So I can infer.

I can see is something that you can see with your own eyes. I can infer is something that you describe about.

First I had to look closly into the first image. I had to write what I need to infer about it. For example :

Next I had to put what I can see on the opposite side on the document.

Lastly  I had to show the experts in my class then I showed my teachers.

I enjoyed doing this task. I did well at looking closly. I need to improve on writing more I can see so I can infer.
