OAR & Synthesis

My group and I were doing 2 tasks called OAR and synthesis.

I did a task called synthesis it has Prior knowledge, New information, New understanding Prior knowledge is knowledge you already know.  New information is something new you learnt. New understanding is something you now know. This activity was about why you agree or don't agree with bullying.

Later We did the QAR task. We had to answer the questions and put them into a box. The boxes were: On my own, Think and search, Author and me, and Right there.

On my own means the answer is not in the text and you came up with the answer on your own. Think and search means the answers in the text but you have to look in diffrent places. Author and me means its not in the text you have to use your background knowledge and what the author has told you to come up with the answer. Right there means its in the text and you can point to it.

I learnt that you shouldn't bully kids and it's not okay.

Opinion

This week we wrote complex sentences. A complex sentence is explaning what a simple sentence is using because.

The questions we answerd were how many legs do you see I saw eight because the legs were connected, and Kane montrose saw 5 because of the outline.

The other photo we looked at was a photo of an animal I saw a Duck because the beak and Kane montrose saw a wood pecker because he saw the beak pecking wood.

I like this activity but it was hard finding the picture of a the optical illusion.

How to write a Compound sentence

Compound sentences are two simple sentences stuck together.

There are three steps: one simple sentence, one comma, one fanboy and one more simple sentence.

The two men are climbing up a cold mountain, and they are having fun.
