Reading
Whole class:
Our reading for today was focussed on ANZAC reading letters from past soldiers who fought in World War 1. After reflecting, I believe it was important to choose letters that students could understand.
Next Time:
- Whole class modelling first (Reading one letter together, then send students away to work in their groups analysing another letter.
- Be more explicit when giving students follow up activities to complete (i.e Write 2-3 sentences what the writer was telling their reader).
Positives
- I was super impressed with the letters my students produced, when asked to write a letter about their first day based in the trenches (Some students did tend to wonder off in to other areas).
- Most students were able to identify new words that were unfamiliar to them and find the meaning to that word.
