L.I to make inferences about the events in the text using clues provided by the author.
Our focus this week in Reading was about Violet Walrond.
Violet Walrond was the first female new zealand representatives in the swimming industry. She played in the 1920 Antwerp Olympics at the age of 15 years of age and was the youngest competitor. She was also one of the firsts in New Zealand to ever use the crawl technique, which had grew a lot of attention around NZ. Violet started winning competitions at a the age of 12 years old, and her father was also her coach; as he did get gifted the Royal Humane Society award, for saving 11 people from drowning.
In this activity we were required to complete this Y chart, that concluded me looking at a image and inferring from a question. The question that was asked was “What will happen when time unfreezes”. Sulia and I worked collaboratively together to complete this task. For us to get a better understanding of the context, we were acquired to read a passage about Violet Walronds life.
We really enjoyed this activity because we learnt apart of NZ history.
