How's #NZreadaloud4 going in Team Awesome

Hi all

We are just heading into the 4th week of our FIRST ever #NZREADALOUD.  To find out more about it visit
https://newzealandreadaloud.wordpress.com/

We are reading

We have been on  a steep learning journey to be able to share our understanding of the book with other children our age around the country who are also reading it.

We have learnt how to:

  • use Edmodo to share our learning
  • create a vocaroo to introduce ourselves, explain how we connected to Conrad ( the main character), and shared a prediction.
  • add text to self, text to text and text to world connections on a google doc (so we can see what other connections are being made)
  • Create an image that explains a particular part in the story- observe others images to see what part they have chosen and what they think is happening....


and we will have 3 more weeks of it. 

Phew. 

We know that Leonie Agnew ( the clever NZ author)  is following what we are doing and we can't wait to hear what she has to say.


on to the next chapter..... the book will come to camp with us too. 

Happy reading all

As a reader we visualise

Ata marie Teams, Here's your task for Week 3. Have fun creating. 

Task 3- Visualising

Visualise a situation in the story so far. 
Create a visual (image) of the situation to show your understanding, if you would like, add some keywords to help others understand the situation you are re creating in your mind. You can draw and capture it to post or you can digitally create your image. 

We can’t wait to see the different ways we visualise the characters and what is happening.

Happy visualising!
