For reading in the last two days we have been learning about Questioning. Questioning is when you ask a question from the text. Sometimes we can answer the questions when we read on. If we can't answer that we can use our prior knowledge to make a guess but if we can't use our prior knowledge then we research. The journal was about a person called Sam that was going to run a triathlon. Sam had just returned from the World Championships in Cancun, Mexico. He was at peak fitness for his training but he wanted to keep it up so he could stay at peak fitness. The triathlon that he was competing in was at Scorching Bay in Wellington. When we were reading some people would read out their questions and then people would try to answer them. These were some of my questions, Why does he need to be there by 8:00 am, Why does he need a number, How did his number stay on when he went under water and What is an Iron man race. Some of the questions I couldn't answer were why does he need a number, what is an Iron man race and how is he one of the fastest even though he was injured. I hope you like it and can answer my questions.
