Reading 2014

In Reading I am learning to: 
Use different reading strategies to work out tricky words.

Success criteria:
Use the pictures to think about what the word could be;
Look at the beginning and end letters and think about what word would fit and make sense;
Look for chunks or words I know within a word and think about what work would make sense;
Read on to the end of the sentence, then re-read and think about what word would make sense.




My next step:

To retell the story in detail.

Persuasive Arguments

W.A.L.T write a persuasive argument

We will know we can do this when we...
* say what the issue is.
*  give an opinion about the problem.
*  give reasons for our opinion.
*  use conjunctions to show cause and effect.
*  use adjectives to make the argument more powerful.

Ataahua says...
I like that I said what the issue was in my argument.

My next learning step is to use a range of conjunctions to join my ideas together.
