Interactive book | U-turn

L.I: To make an interactive book.
L.I: To analyse a story for its conflict and resolution.
This week for Reading we read a new book called "U-turn" and created an interactive book and conflict and resolution graphic organiser about it. Our interactive book (google presentation) had to include specific things. For Dr. Dahl we had to include 2 Te reo questions, 3 Vocabulary questions, 3 Figurative language questions, and 2 Idiom questions. We could create our own interactive book or use the template, which I decided to do. We had to insert screenshots of each page from the book, and link either one of the must includes that we found in the page. One of the four answers would lead to an incorrect or correct page where then you could go back to the story page you were on from there. In the conflict & resolution graphic organiser we had to included the characters and their ideals/wants, conflict, two actions leading up to the resolution, and then the final resolution. In total their are 8 questions. Click through the slides on my presentation and hover over sentences or words that are one of the must include.

Interactive Book | WW1

L.I: To learn about the conflict, causes, and resolution to World War 1.
This term for inquiry were focusing on peace relating to conflict and resolution. We're re-searching and learning about WW1 and it's conflict and resolution in that. We first paired up and completed two activities from an interactive notebook with our partner. My partner was Florence. The first was WW1 Vocabulary list which was about words under WW1 that was related to the topic. For that, there was a template which was the word, then we had to find the definition, and an image. Then next one was a timeline that leaded up to world war 1. We had to look at a site that gave us the answers to what started and leaded up to WW1.

Conflict and Resolution | Sparks

L.I: To analyse a story for its conflict and resolution.
This week for reading we read a text called Sparks to find its conflict and resolution. We first talked about what conflict and resolution are and what they mean. After reading the first two pages as a class, we discussed the characters and what the conflict might be. Then we went away to show our learning by making a copy of a conflict and resolution template. We had to read the rest of the story and fill the information needed in the template. A story connected to the one we read, is Man and Sea from in the cultural story about the black octopus and the chief son. The conflict for that is when the two started fighting and the ideals from the two characters was the chiefs son wanted to kill the octopus and the black octopus wanted to kill the chiefs son. The resolution was the octopus was killed and the chiefs son returned home to the village with the blood of the black octopus remaining.
