Our First Olympics

LI: To use the information in the text to make inferences. 

LI: To use the images to predict what the text might be about.

This week for reading we have been doing guided reading on the text Our First Olympians. Guided reading is a digital verson of reading a text by commenting your thoughts on the book.

First we predicted what we think the text is about. Then if we had a predictions, we wrote our predictions in the comment section.

After, we unpacked the structure and purpose, then we also write on the comment section. After, we discuss what we already know about the Olympics.Then we defined these words:

- achievement

- heritage

- inspiration

- challenges

- freestyle

- determination

After defining the words, we used a website that measured the distance between Auckland to Antwerp. Then we used the comment section to answer questions that were related to the text.

After, we created a presentation about the first New Zealand Olympic Team and created medals for the Olympics.
