Visual reading poster - The Australian outback - a summary




The Australian canning stock route is the same length as New Zealand from Cape Reinga all the way down to Bluf. When I was reading my book I was summarising the key information and putting it in my own words. I liked this story because it is a survival story and I like survival stories.

Adrenalin writing- A time to strike

  





Adrenalin writing.
A time to strike
We were using youtube clips to make our writing more exciting.
Our learning goal was to hook in the reading by adding more detail to our writing.
I enjoyed this writing because I was so proud of my work.and surprised that I could do amazing writing like this. This is the first time I have written like this and I love it!


Jonny 4 higher graffiti artist

I chose Johnny 4 higher because of his fantastic graffiti artwork that’s been displayed around the world.
When I was searching information about Johnny 4 higher I was trying to find the key information about why he chose to be a graffiti artist and summarise the information in my own words.

Why? I picked Johnny 4 higher because of his amazing maori art. He is able to complete a mural in one day.

Where? His graffiti art is all around the whole world and across New Zealand.



50 Cent

I chose 50 Cent because he is an amazing rapper/voice actor. 50 Cent was naughty and selling drugs when he was 12 years old. I picked 50 Cent because I used to listen to him when I was little. I wanted to write about 50 Cent because I heard that he got shot nine times and that interested me. I was searching for all of the important things and summarizing the key facts. Putting them in my own words was the hardest part for me.
