Wildboy: The Journey of Brando Yelavich

Sunday 26 February

Learning Intention: We are learning to actively engage with the text and develop full sentence, answers and paragraphs ( using the SEX-Y paragraph structure)

Success Criteria:
       I can read and re-read the text to locate specific detail for my sentences/ paragraphs
       I can write a statement, an explanation with examples to support my explanation.
       I can think about why this is important.
       I can stay focused and complete the set work as my teacher works with another group.

We are going to complete the work on Responding to the set questions and paragraph work for the Wildboy: The Journey of Brando Yelavich  article. We have worked hard to go back and re-read to locate and find specific detail to be able to answer a question in a full sentence with supporting detail.
Some of you have worked hard to develop a paragraph answer, using the structure of the SEX-Y paragraph that we are just beginning to learn about and use in our work.

There will be plenty more opportunities for you to continue to develop those skills.

As a class we experimented with some separate group teaching, thanks for being responsible and contributing to that exercise. I still have a few people to see on Monday P3 and this should be the end of this work. After this period I'd like you to submit for feedback your work in Hapara.

We are going to look at a documentary about a group of young people who also worked to accept a challenge.

There will be an opportunity to respond and think about what these students went through to meet their challenge.
This will lead into a challenge that you have experienced.

Group conference with teacher for those I have not already worked with.
