My reading task for today was to choose 6 unfamiliar or interesting words found in my text 'Rising Seas'. I've created a poster that has the definition of 6 words and then them written in a setence.
Completing this reading task helped me understand the text better because if I did not know what these words meant, I could not understand what the sentence or paragraph was telling me. I believe it is very important to know what words mean, and if you do not know, take the time to figure it out. Some ways I figure out words I don't know is by reading on and seeing if the text will tell me, looking at the pictures in the text, using a dictionary or googling it. Sometimes I may ask my teacher, friend or family.
What do you think of my task? Did you know what these words meant? Can you put these words in your own sentence?
