P.B.S Book Week - Reading Pathway

This week is book week challenge, different classes around our school are doing different activities based on Book Week. In Learning Space 2 our activities was to make a DLO showing our favourite book from our childhood to Now. My favourite book now is Amulet, it has interesting story, lots of mysteries and adventures.  

All About Meerkats - Book Week Challenge

Meerkat Mail is an amazing picture book written by a highly praised British author, whose name is Emily Gravett. To celebrate book week Mrs Anderson has read three of Emily Gravett's books and has asked us to complete three activities based on the books. The books that have read are: Wolves, Meerkat Mail, and the Big Book of Fears. All three books were written and illustrated by Emily Gravett. The book Meerkat Mail is about a Meerkat who is getting sick of living with his family and throughout the week he went and lived with relatives who live a different lifestyle he is used to. At the end of the book he finally understands why he has to live like he does so he returned home. 

Book Week Challenge - Wolves - Emily Gravett

Today as part of Book Week Mrs Anderson has set another Book Week task for us. First we read one of Emily Gravett's books called Wolves. Everyone enjoyed the book and had a laugh. After reading the book we were to make a DLO based on wolves. We were to make a table: One side which had what we think about wolves and the other side saying what is true about wolves. For example if the myth was Wolves and dogs are related we were to search up if it was true or not and tell why. I really had a fun time doing this.

Do Illustration Matter Why?

This week is our book week, today our activities is to make an analysis to the questions that we answer. The question I choose is Do Illustration matter? My opinion is, illustration is really good because it helps the reader imagine the story and it draws the picture in the readers mind.

World War 1 - Main Disease

This was my second activity. I chose to research about what are the main diseases that happened in World War 1. I learnt that more than 2 million people died of disease and I think it is a very huge amount of people. For this task I worked with Miki.
