Reading l SSR Selfie

I read 13 pages about the Colossal of book Colour.


It was about the difference between the colours. The way we see and interpret colour is critical to understanding the world. Colours can carry meaning that we never consider. Objects that are identical in size, shape and texture can look very different if they are differently coloured.


I really enjoyed this book because I learnt about all the colours.

Maths l Basic Facts Boxes

I completed a Speed Demon Challenge up to 20.

The three times tables are multiplying three by a number of groups. The four times tables are mulitiplying four by a number of groups. The six are multiplying six by a number of groups.

The times table are an easy way to remember basic multiplication equations. The next times table to learn are the sevens, eight, and nines times table.

Reading l Making Connection

Making Connections is a critical reading strategy that helps students make meaning of what they're reading. When they make connections to the text that they're reading.

Text to self it getting a part of a book and connect it with something that you done to a character. An example for The Duck tells the rat she has a sister with so many treats in her cave. The Duck trying to avoid being eaten. I told my big brother that I finished my homework when I hadn’t because then he would think I was good. These connect because they both show trickery.

Text to Text it gets a text in a book and connects it with another book. An example: The Duck leads the rat to the cave. The Duck was planning how to get rid of the rat. The grandma leads the wolf inside the house because the grandma thought it was the Red Riding Hood. These connect because they both return everything back.

Text to World is getting information that happened in the world and connecting it with a book. An example The Duck gave water to the horse and share food with the villages. The Duck could see the horse was tired and struggling and the villages are hungry and starving. People are giving food and drinks to homeless people because to surviving being hungry and thirsty. These connect because they both caring about the character are starving and thirsty.


Making Connection is a good activity because it helps people to retain the information better, and help people engage more with the text itself.
