There, Their and They're Homophones


My Reflection:
I was learning about there, their and they're homophones.
Homophones are words that sound the same but they mean different things.
I found writing the meanings a bit easier. Putting the correct words in the sentences was harder because when you read the sentence you have to see which is the right word to put in so the sentence can make sense. I want to work on knowing more about homophones.

Reading Around the World Challenge

My Reflection: I was learning to research a country that was in the Olympics. I was using skimming and scanning to help me. I think I need to work on using skimming and scanning. I found it easier to research two interesting facts. I found finding out the capital city hard. I want to work on putting the research into my own words.

Retelling Timeline



My Reflection:
I was learning to retell the story. I found it tricky because it was hard to find the right words to write down. I found it easy to talk about what happened in the story. I want to work on describing the setting when I am retelling a story.

Fractured Fairytale


My Reflection:
I was learning to compare a fractured fairytale with the traditional fairytale. I found it easy to write about the ones thats not real.  I found it tricky to figure out what to write for the real one because it has a lot in it. I want to work on thinking of more information for comparing the two fairytales.

Olympic Tagul



My Reflection:
I was learning to extend my Olympic vocabulary by thinking of an Olympic related word for each letter in the alphabet.
I found it easy to figure out the sports and games that I could use for a letter easy because I saw a lot of sports.
I found  it tricky to spell the words.
I want to know more words about the Olympics.
