Meerkats

This week at Panmure Bridge is book week. Last time we created a bar graph based on our reading questions that we got asked. After creating the bar graph Mrs Anderson read one of her favourite childhood books to us. It was called Meerkat Mail. This book was illustrated and written by Emily Gravett. After listening to this book we were to create a DLO that explained facts and information about Meerkats. Above shows the DLO that I created on my own. 

Bar Graph - Do Illustrations matter? Why

   

This week Panmure Bridge School had a book week. A book week is when we do activities that reflect back to information based on books. Today LS2 did a bus stop challenge. A bus stop challenge is when a group of people answers the question in about 1-2 minutes. Before doing this we were to get into groups. One we were in our groups we were to start writing as many answers as we could. One of the questions that we answered was do Illustrations matter? Why. Every group was to write on every paper. There were a lot of answers as we counted. After this happened we were to choose one of the questions and create a bar graph based on our chosen question. Marieta and I chose this question, but we created our own graphs. The amount of yeses that we found were 18, and the amount of no's that we found were 2. One of the answers were yes, because it makes the book more appealing and no, because a good book should be able to make you imagine.
