Diary of Anne Frank

 The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank

Hello I am going to talk about the diary of Anne Frank. We finished reading the diary in my class. We have a lot of interesting information about World War 2 and the main characters who were Jews. Because of that they want into hiding because Hitler wanted to kill them or make them to do slave work.

In hiding they have to be really quiet and if they were found, Hitler soldiers will go and kill or capture them. That is why they are in hiding so nothing bad happens but it is a big risk to be in hiding.

Anne's diary was a gift for her family before Hitler want to get rid of all the Jews and Anne named the diary Kitty so she think that she's talking to someone and made the book her friend.

The war started because the Jews got help for the Allied forces and fort back Hitler's men so the Jews got to live in pace.

Questioning

In Reading we are learning to be good readers. To be a good reader you ask questions before, during and after you read something. We are learning to ask different types of questions. They are Right there question- the answer can be found in the text. Think & search - the answer is in the text but it may not use the same language that is used in the question and you may have to look in different places to find it. Author and me - The answer is in the text. You need to use your own background knowledge and what the author has told you to come up with the answer. This week we looked at a photo. In our groups we wrote questions about the photo. In our groups we wrote questions about the photo. We decided that the people in the photo were escaping or running from something. Next we brainstormed what they could be running from. I thought they were running from a big fire. After that we made a survival kit.

Why - welcame the new year to bring good luck, good fortune,wealth prosperity + happiness


Dragon dance


  1. The dragon dance is performed by a skilled team whose job is to bring the motionless body to life.
  2. The correct combination and proper timing of the different parts of the dragon are very important to make a successful dance.
  3. Any mistakes made by even some of the performers would spoil the whole performance.
  4. To be very successful in the dance, the head of the Dragon must be able to coordinate with the body movement to match the timing of the drum.
  5. For larger ceremonial and parade style dragons, the head can weigh as much as 12 katie (14.4 kg, almost 32 lb).

camping trip



In Reading I am learning to predict. I had to look at the picture and predict what was happening.I use my prior knowledge and clues from the text.

Camping Trip

“I guess this is what the wilderness feels like.” John said to himself. Standing there in the woods, he couldn’t believe he had agreed to go on a camping trip with his cousins. He’d always been scared of new experiences.
John noticed that his cousins were unpacking the camping gear while his Uncle Jim was setting up the tent. Suddenly, John felt a little bad about not helping. “Hey, Uncle Jim, what can I do to help?” he asked, trying to sound confident.
“Why don’t you gather some firewood?”Uncle Jim answered.
“Um, sure” John replied. “Where do they keep it?”
Uncle Jim gave John a curious look. “We are in the woods John, just look around for some clean and dry wood.”
Based on the story… do you think John will enjoy the camping trip?

Evidence
What I already know - Prior Knowledge.
Scared, felt bad,



Lake river bike ride campfire fishing hill climb the food runing beds hide and seek darken and cutting logs.

Prediction
He will not like the camping trip because he is scared of the woods and he Felt bad because he didn't help anyone else.

Greedy


Greedy was hungry so he went out to get food.
Then he found some apples.
Then he took the apples into his nest.
Then he started to eat the apples fast.
When he was eating high speed he made crunchy noises.
When he was finished eating he was happy he found those apples.
