Monday, Term 2, Week 3
Today the piece of news that we discussed was
'Storm to Sweep Country'
Making Connections to the TitleWe made connections using our prior knowledge about what a storm is and which country the news was likely to be about.When attempting to make connections to the title given to us we also had to find out a little bit of information about the word 'sweep' to help us out.
Who, What, When, Where, Why We highlighted these elements of the article(to be seen to the right hand side).
Discussion CommentsA lot of discussion came from reading this article closely.We have also included comments from class members about this article.
Linking to Other Curriculum AreasWe made a link to our latest topic 'Hazards' by recognising that Metservice is a service that has been developed to inform people about what is happening with weather patterns internationally.
