Explanations

We are writing explanations at the moment. Our focus is Earthquakes and our question is...

What is an Earthquake?

We have done a lot of work on cause and effect and can write lots of examples. We also viewed lots of models on the NZ Exemplars and developed our criteria for assessment. We will be self assessing our explanations against this criteria.

We also have learnt lots about note taking & making. We learnt how to surf, slurp and summarise information from web sites, fact sheets and books.
