WALT : Actively contribute to discussions and listen and respond to the ideas of others.
We have been doing an activity on a book we read called "Break-up day" and we summarised about it. We answered questions and did a worksheet on something we did.
Q1 : How to the subheading support the main idea?
A1 : It supports the main idea by hinting the reader on what the story will be about in the passage
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q2 : Is this a good title for the book? Why or why not?
A2 : i think Roar is a good title for the book due to one of the passages saying "Jack carries a cow horn to intimidate deer calls" because deers have a roar to call other deer or to find the other deer.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q3 : What is the authors purpose in writing this selection?
A3 : In a passage there's a subheading that says "the deer problem?" and its bout how the deers were not native to nz. the british brought the deer here in the mid 1800s and because there were no predators so their population grew and started damaging the native bush and that's how hunters are actually helping our bush live.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q4 : Locate a heading. How does it help the reader understand the paragraph?
A4 : The heading "stealthy" Gives the reader a hint the paragraph will be all about how the people in the book be stealthy.

Q5 : What is the theme of this selection?
A5 : The theme is about a family hunting deers and what they do to hunt down and catch deer.
