Integrated Topic Drought
This is unfortunately the copy that Maxwell had ready for me when it was time for blogging. I can see that he had been working hard on his copy but then made his way over to someone who was removed from the learning area for misbehaviour. They were both required to stay in to make up the learning time which was wasted.
This is much better work - I can now see that you have worked hard and it is a copy you can be proud of.
We are learning about how the sun affects the earth.
Success Criteria:
- Explain water moves in a cycle.
- Explain how drought affects living things and our planet

Reading
I am learning to pick books that are a good fit for me in the library.
Student voice: "These books are too hard for me. I don't get books here."

We are learning to make a habitat for a compost worm.

I am learning to find words that I know before I start reading.
Scanning the page for these words helps us to self correct our reading
Maxwell: I know the word 'a'
