Persuasive Texts

WAL to identify bias in a text.  We had to highlight the words that showed Koro Apirana being biased.  He would be mean to Kahu because he wanted a boy to be the chief but Kahu was next in line and she is a girl.  

I thought this activity was easy because I could find the examples.

The easiest part was the ones where it said he was grumpy with her.  The hardest part was where it didn’t say it very clearly.

I hope we get to do something like this again.

WAL to identify persuasive techniques.  We had to figure out which technique they were using.  We had practiced these techniques in the skits we created.  For example

They dress up like a scientist so we believe their expert opinion

Emotional Appeal makes you feel guilty if you don’t use the product

The technique I found easiest to remember is slogan because I remember it easily.

The technique that was hardest was emotional appeal because I found it hard to manipulate a person to think I was right

Overall, it was easy because I could tell that they use this or that technique

Room 20 has been reading the book "Bridge To Terabithia". In the story, it was raining really hard and the week was swollen and flooded. Yesterday it was pouring here as well. So we decided to do some authentic learning. We made some raincoats from plastic bags and walked down to see the creek behind our school. We could see the water flowing fast and the plants that had been flattened. I thought that the houses was flooded because the rain was so hard that the water was up to the houses.
