Multicultural week

-
Last week I participated actively in a range of learning experience around ‘Multicultural week’
WHAT: I was involved in a range of learning experiences for Multicultural week. I made a paper cut out spring, and picked up jelly beans with chopsticks, it was hard at first but then it got easier.

SO WHAT:
I learnt how to use chopsticks.
I enjoyed getting my henna done by Dania's Aunty
I was most fascinated by learning that in Russia it can get down to -71 degrees.
NOW WHAT
A question I have is how many underground buildings are there in Russia?

WALT Know what different words mean

WALT Know what different words mean Reading Goal - Term 2 What’s my goal? Know what different words mean What have I learned? That if you try hard enough to do research you can find heaps of words that mean the same thing How to think of different words to replace other words e.g. words to use instead of said The first is the word we were given and the second word was the word that I came up with that means the same thing.     1. Replied - responded       2. Fairy - Pixie     3. Announcement - speech     4. Vanished - disappeared     5. Spinning - turning     6. Clumsy - Helpless     7. Demanded - yelled     8. Disappear - vanished     9. Happily - merrily     10. Frightened - scared I found this easy because I know lots of different words and what they mean. What is my next learning step? I can use several pieces of information to make inferences (on information not directly in the text).

My reading goals

I have looked at the results of my test and identified 3 goals for this term. My reading goals are: [1] Consistently read to understand the meaning of a text [2] Make a conclusion or an assumption [3] Know what different words mean # 1 and 2 are about understanding the text, especially by thinking about the text more ‘deeply’. # 3 is about developing my vocabulary and being able to use the information around a difficult word to make sense of it. You can help me with [1] and [2] by asking me about the book I am reading at home; about the characters, setting, plot and resolution (fiction) Get me to explain why I believe

Learner Qualities: Empathise and Communicate Empathise: Share at least 3 example of how you have shown empathy recently. Add a photo if you can. When Lillian tipped the picture into the paint I told her it was okay. Lillian got string stuck in her hair, I helped her get it out. When Claudia was lonely I played with her. Communicate:   Share at least 3 examples of how you have communicated in different ways this term. Add photos if you can. Dania and I were doing our diorama and we communicated by telling each other what we would do on our diorama. For Integrated Learning I took our poster home so I could finish it.   Putting my hand up in Reading, Writing and Maths to share my answers and ideas with others.
