Morning everyone!

Day 2!

This morning's session has a reading focus. The pictures below are the first few pages of our new class text, Sea Bean.

First task is to look at the front cover. Does it remind you of anything you have seen or read before? What do you think the story might be about? What other questions do you have?

Your next task is something we have done before: actively read these pages.

• read one sentence at a time
• write or ask yourself questions or I wonder statements
• do this one sentence at a time - you may find the answer straight away but this doesn't matter
• make any notes on synonyms or vocabulary that you already know
• answer any questions that you wrote down that you did not come across in the text
• don't worry if you cannot find any answers

Next task

Do some investigating!

Locate St Kilda on a map - I will attach a link to google earth below to assist you

Can you find out what life might be like on St Kilda? Do not worry if you do not have access to a computer at this point. Come back to it if you need to.

Final task

What type of text is this chapter?

Can you identify any features that make it stand out as this type of text?

Clue: it says at the start of page 7!

We will pick the story up again tomorrow....
