Best Reasons For Good Reading Comprehension

Out of all the ideas about why we need to EXPERT in READING COMPREHENSION, the best are about to be published.

We've thought hard about this and perhaps we are getting closer to a reasonably good explanation, but everyone has to learn from this work and improve their learning skills in following instructions and reading for clear understanding.
These learning skills are vital for the future for all students.

When the four best are finalized, we will post them here, so keep watching.

Well done Christopher!!!

You've done it again!
You did it last year too!! (in Guess The Card)
Everybody has problems with "a, an" and "the", but during the A2 RC game recently, You spoke very accurately, clearly and totally without hestiation (gak ragu2lah).
Wow!
So good to hear!!!!
What's the lesson for you (and everyone else too)?
Yes, never hestitate. Don't even think of listening to the other kids! Take your chance! Back yourself! Answer fast and from the heart and somehow it all works.
Ms. V noticed too.
Great stuff Christopher!!!

Reading Comprehension

Recent work shows us we have to work much, much harder on our reading comprehension. We have so much to do and there are very good reasons for getting good at this skill.

Why do we need to work on our reading comprehension? ( A good answer for this Year level will have about 20 - 30 words)

The best two boys' answers and the two best girls' answers will get 100 points for their groups.

10 points for trying

-20 points for not even trying, not even posting a comment!

Answer on the Blog Comments page only- no discussions, no phone calls, brothers, sisters, mums or dads, uncles, aunts, cousins or passers-by, no SMS, e-mails, sneaky notes or whispering tricks are allowed! And just in case we've missed something - nothing else either!

Homework February 13 2008

You already have hard copy of the A2 report. This one on the blog is almost the same.
Here's your mission: create a total of nine (9) questions in any or all of three (3) categories ranging from DEAD EASY/ MODERATELY SIMPLE/ and TRICKY.
Bring these to class on Thursday. Everybody's work is valuable, so try hard.
Remember NO JOCKEYS! Do the work by yourself!
Hey, TIRTA! Have you got that????????

A2 Jets are Superquick

British engineers said last Thursday that they have a hypersonic jet that could fly from Europe to Austtralia in less than 5 hours. The A2 plane, designed by Reaction Engines in Oxfordshire, South England, could carry up to 300 passengers, the size of jamez, at a top speed of 6,400 km/h - five times the speed of sound The plane could be in operation within 25 years and is designed to leave Brussels airport flying quietly and subsonically across the North Atlantic at mach 0.9 (about 1000 km/h, before really hoofing it and climbing into space over the North Pole and reaching mach 8 or 9. The plane is 143 metres long (about twice as long as the biggest aircraft now) and it will be able to fly non-stop for 20 hours on liquid hydrogen which is environmentally friendly giving off water and nitrous oxide and NOT carbon emissions!
The are no windows on the plane because of the heat from friction. The costs are expected to be about the same as first class flights now and the flight time? 4 hours forty minutes. It could even be quicker! Imagine! Will it happen? That depends on whether people want it or not.
The technology was invented, believe it or not, nearly 40 years ago, but the British government at the time didn't think it was possible to power such a big airplane.

"Impossible! Fiddlesticks!! Absolute bananas!!! said the Bitish PM from No 10 Clowning Street

Boeing were very quick to employ the designer, but they too had problems developing it - no bucks! Now it's back with the Brits again!

Now we see that our Promotion Posters that we did in November, were absolutely on the ball!

Happy Chinese New Year to all of you. Don't forget to ask angpao from Mr. P!!!!!

CHINESE NEW YEAR

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR

yoooo! phiiiiiiiiiiil getttinnnnng cooooler!

4V - Not Bad All 4 February 2008

Most of 4V did well today in the Guessing the Text activity. The texts were quite good simple and suitable for your age group and standard of English usage. Good. And everybody contributed (well, almost).
The main problem seems to be in Savannah group - you guys are too quiet! You have to take your chances. You are good enough.
The good thing is that mistakes are OK when guessing. Make sure you have a go next time.

Meltdown

Yeah, this G W thing is worse than you think!!!!!!!!!!!!




Global warming is destoying the frozen home of the polar bears. Pollution is one of the causes of global warming and the Arctic ice cap is melting.

This a bad sign for the polar bears. So, they are in danger.

The remedy is to reduce carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere.
