The Disaster.

Learning Goals.

To find the key information and to summarise the key facts, summarise the story in your own words and to not retell the story in your own words.

What I liked the most:
I liked to find the key words and rewrite them in your own words. It was interesting to find new stories to read and summarise them and to learn new things each time I read the book.

What I found hard/frustrating:
I found it too hard to not retain the story and to summarise the story. It was hard to keep in the same tents and not to switch from the past and present.

What I Can Do Next Time/ difference:

Next time I will keep my writing in these tents and not keep switching from past and present. I well put the important information .

Logan Paul- actor

  

Logan Paul.
I have been studying the artist Logan Paul.
Our class has been researching artists in our world and summarising the key information.
Learning Goals: To get the key information and key facts that are interesting for summarising. Next was to put the facts in my own words.
What I liked the most: I like making the posters and putting all the detail in my writing so people can read it. I put a lot of detail into them so they don't get bored.
What I found hard/frustrating: I found it hard finding some of my facts. Some were frustrating because websites that I used would show the same information. I found it hard to try not to plagiarise, to put all the words in my own words and to keep it the same meaning.
What I Can Do Next Time/ difference:
I will try to get all my work done when the dead line has come. I will try to keep all my writing in the same tense and not to keep going to the present and the past.

Inquiry Term 2 Buffalo chops

 

Buffalo chops

At the break of dawn waiting anxiously, I sense a buffalo nearby, walking towards me. I try to blend in with the dry golden, rocky, African plains. The buffalo walks past, not expecting me here. I get ready to pounce on the fat, juicy Buffalo. The buffalo senses something strange. He stops and sniffs the air. This is my chance to get some fat, juicy buffalo chops. I pounce on the back of the buffalo and then. 

I sink my razor sharp claws into the buffalo's back, as he tries to get me off his back. But I keep digging my claws in deeper and deeper. I dig my pearly white teeth into the side of his neck. Drops to the dusty, rocky track he lets out a bellow for help. The buffalo kept on kicking, so I tried to pin it down making sure he doesn't run away. I start ripping up the skin of the buffalo. I get to the fat juicy buffalo chops for dinner but...

Learning Goal: Is to add detail and hook in my reader so I can keep them entertained.

What I liked the most: I like to get words on the paper, I liked reading my writing and seeing it all come together. Looking at all of my editing, feed forward, and feedback from my classmates.

What I found hard/frustrating: 

What I found hard was reading my writing, editing it, making a lot of changes and trying to keep it in the same tense. Trying not to switch from the past to now.

What I Can Do Next Time/difference:

Next time I will not try to reach the deadline, and try to get all of it done in one day and  I kept on missing out the most important parts. I  was not reading my writing and my writing did not make sense all my sentence were all over the place.

Learning Goals:   To get the key information and key facts that are  interesting and to summarising and to read all my senteres to see if it makes senters.

What I liked the most:   I liked finding out new facts and things that were interesting and that i did not know about them.


What I found hard/frosting: I found frosting  about my work was that some off the websites were that they would give me the same information or they would confuse me.

What I Can Do Next Time/ difference:  I could improve on my recherche and finding more information, how could find facts fast and to not plagiarize.
