Current Events

LI: To explore the international current events. 



This week, we explored the international currents events and some of the different types of current events. Newspaper editors make choices everyday, about what to share with the world. On a google maps, Sakina, Haylee and I worked collaboratively to plot locations about these current event stories. We really enjoyed finding out about these stories, which was very interesting.

Current Events 1

Today I have completed my first Current Events map. For this Current Events map, I have chosen 2 articles from Kiwi Kids News. The first Article I chose was about people predicting that we might not have Notes and Coins, and we will trn to using cards. To sum up, New Zealand may become a Cashless Society, This article is under TImeliness, because it is something that is happening right now.. The second article I chose was about Queen Elizabeth having an early Easter break, She decided that she will have an Easter Break a week before the actual Easter break, This is under emotion because some people can have different emotions reading this.

Exploring our national current events

This week for reading we’ve been looking at national news for current events.
We have been looking at news articles to put under reading topics such as Timeliness,
Continuity, Oddity, Relevance, Magnitude, Unexpectedness, Impact, . The news we
needed to find had to be national which meant in the country, We have worked in
groups and in our group was Victoria, Ellenora, Diana, Chris,Ong,  and myself.

Current Events | Reading

Today as a great start off to reading we completed another activity. This activity was completed in our collaborative groups. To complete this task we were to find 2 events about national and international events that had happened recently. We used a creative DLO that helped us write everything in. Pua, Te Pounamu, Avalon, Mele, and I worked collaboratively together for this task. We chose the articles about Fiji banning nets and children's day. We answered the 5 questions and 1 how. Our group also gave our own point of views to show that we have evidence. 

Current Events

Today I worked with Chavda on Current events. Our topic we picked was Flooding in Victoria. We picked this topic because we found it interesting and different.  I think we did a good job on this and I think the 6 hats help us explained the things we red.
