Reading Week | Statistical Analysis

This week in Maths, since it was reading week, we created a bar graphs which showed the statistics of our favorite book, authors, book characters, genre or illustrator. Before we did the statistics, we filled out a forum for this activity. For the statistical bar graph we chose which category we wanted to make a bar graph about. I decided to make a bar graph about our favorite books. When we created our bar graphs, we created another DLO, including what the data shows, the bar graph and the LS2's favorite books.

Reading Week | Setting

This week in reading week for our fourth activity, we created a DLO, describing a setting. We could choose from two settings, which was either the fun house or the castle. I decided to describe the fun house because it looked fun. For the DLO, I included adjectives and a paragraph to describe the fun house to the readers.

Reading Week | Aesop's Fable | Comic Strips

This week, it was reading week. For reading week we did different activities. The first activity we did was reading one of Aesop's fables and retelling it, by making a comic strip. Aesop was an author who wrote short stories about animals. The fable that I decided to retell, was the ant and the grasshopper. This fable is about an ant who works to get shelter and food in summer, but the grasshopper laughs and tells the ant to listen to his song. The ant would ignore the grasshopper and keep working. When it was winter the grasshopper was very cold, while the ant had shelter and food. The grasshopper decided to ask for the ant for shelter and food, but the ant told the grasshopper to go away, because he was working really hard for food and shelter. For my comic strip, I decided to use storyboard that. I enjoyed this activity

Reading Week | Reading Pathway

This week in reading week, for our second activity, we created a DLO about our favorite books when we were younger and now. When I was 5 my favorite book was we wish you a kiwi Christmas, when I was 8 my favorite book was the super chef contest from Geronimo Stilton, when I was 10 my favorite book was Esio Trot and right now my favorite book is Harry Potter & The Philosopher's Stone. This second activity was fun, because I was able to write about my favorite books when I was younger.

Reading Week | Joy Cowley

This week in reading week, for our third activity we created a DLO about a New Zealand author. The author that I decided to create a DLO about was Joy Cowley. In my DLO I included facts about Joy Cowley, the books Joy Cowley wrote, what inspired her to become an author and questions I'd ask Joy Cowley. Joy Cowley is an author who wrote children stories and some adult novels.
