Self-Monitoring Poster

L.I: To monitor our understanding of a text by ourselves.
This week for reading we had to create a poster that tells you about Self-Monitoring. We had to discuss over with our neighbours next to us sitting on the matt what it means. Then we had to watch a video that gives a full explanation of what self-monitoring is. Then we had to self-monitor ourselves with a book that we read. My group read the book - water worries. The groups learnt the different self-monitoring fix up strategies that you can do to help you when you are in that situation. We had to get into buddies from our group and say aloud the words we don't understand and the same with the other buddy. Our job was to create a poster that explains self-monitoring and what we know about it. In the poster we had to include 3 examples we got stuck in the book, and put what the word was, why you didn't know it, what strategy helped you understand it, and what it means after learning it. The three words I got stuck on were - Groundwater, Irrigation, and Aquifers. Even though I could pronounce them didn't mean I knew them. I also list the fix up strategies we learnt on the side of that poster. Self-monitoring means to be able to say yourself, what your understanding is of a word if you don't know it then being able to correct it using strategies.
