Kiwi kids news Scavenger Hunt

Reflection:
I found this activity fun to do because i liked to look at all the different stuff

Whale Rider

WAL to identify bias in a text.  We had to highlight the words that showed Koro Apirana being biased.  He would be mean to Kahu because he wanted a boy to be the chief but Kahu was next in line and she is a girl.  

I thought this activity was tricky to find where he was being biased.

The easiest part was the ones where it said he was grumpy with her.  The hardest part was where it didn’t say it very clearly.

This activity was really interesting.

I’m enjoying learning about Whale Rider.

Making Connections

WAL to make connections between the real world and a text.

Room 20 has been reading the book,  called Bridge to ¨Terabithia¨

In the story, it was raining really hard and the creek was swollen and flooded. Yesterday it was pouring here as well. So we decided to do some authentic learning. We made some raincoats from plastic bags and walked down to see the creek behind our school. We could see the water flowing fast and the plants that had been flattened.

I thought that I freezing and cold but a cool thing to look at because it gave us a chance to see what it might look like in the book as well.
