This week we had to read the story "Elephant Bubloo" which is in Books 2 on our ipods.First of all we had to read the story. The parent helpers assisted us if we didn't know a word or the meaning of a word. The story included pictures and text and we turned the page by swiping our finger across the screen right to left.
After we finished reading the story we had to complete the worksheet seen here. We had to find as many adjectives, nouns and verbs in the text and complete the worksheet.
Kayla found it took a long time to find all the adjectives, nouns and verbs.
Austin thought it was fun because it helped him learn more about adjectives, nouns and verbs.
Oscar thought it was helpful because it will help him with his writing and he enjoyed reading the book.
Brendan discovered that on some pages of the story all the text didn't fit so he had to scroll up to read the rest of the text.
Jamee thought it was fun to find all the adjectives, because there were not many of them - she thought it was a bit of a challenge.
We discovered that reading some of the 'books' on the iPod touches could be lots of fun as well as learning more about the structure of a good text.
Dear 3W. Elephant Bubloo looks like a very cute character. It makes me sad that I don't have the time to read some of the books on the iPods when I'm at school. Can you please do something for me? If some of you have the time in class, you might like to pick the three most important parts of the story. Take a screen shot of each one and email the pictures to me at mmead@bne.catholic.edu.au
ReplyDeleteI know some of you can use Sonic Pics so you might even like to make your own Elephant Bubloo story for me with 3 parts so I can look at the important bits and hear your explanations without having to read the whole thing on the iPods.
I hope some of you quick workers have time to do this one day soon. Thanks very much for all your news!
