WALT -  Summarise information in a text

Hey blog viewers today you are going to see some information about four different texts that I have read about. The four texts are called "What now for the Rena?", "The class newspaper", "Great Barrier Reef", and "Oil spill". These different texts have questions to it and I answerd those questions in a google slide and it is on top of this description. What this task asked me to do was that it asked me to read each text plus the video and fill in the answers on each slides.

Poster- Water wise

WALT: I make sense of new information before, during and after reading by connecting it to myself, texts I know and my world.

This weeks task we have to do reading in our literacy classes what we do for our reading is that we have to work out our presentations that we get from our reading and writing teacher named Mrs Iloa, before we do our presentations we get a reading book online and read it. From the presentations there is a slide that says we had to do a poster, what this poster is all about is that it is all about water wise. Up the top of this description is a poster that I have created using google drawing. This poster is all about Appreciating water. My quote says " Appreciate Water Don't Waste Water. ".  Please leave a comment and Try not waste water thank you.  

The case of the Broken window and the forbidden fruit

WALT: compare and contrast two stories.






This weeks reading task was about solving a crime. We are trying to learn about comparing two of the same story's together, what we did was very exciting. There is a Venn diagram on the 2 to last slide. The Venn diagram is all about the two same story's and what's the similarity of both of the story's and what happens in both of the stories. This task asked me to read the text careful and try and find the evidence from the text. My favourite thing about these books is how we have to solve out the crime.
