We are learning to ask questions as we read to gain a better understanding.

What does this mean? We ask questions about the text and look for answers, sometimes we make predictions if the information isn't in the text. We're like journalists, asking questions and searching for the answers.

WALT: make predictions when we read.

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">We are learning to make inferences as we read.

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">We use clues/ evidence to figure out ideas the author hasn't told us.

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">She likes fish and snorkeling... "she's hoping there might be some fish".

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">She likes water and swimming... "she goes snorkeling".

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">How old is she? <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">15-18

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">Clues... <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">She can swimming/ snorkeling by herself. <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">Her parents are reading in the shade. They're not too worried which means they must trust her.

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">Rachel was excited and wanted her parents to see the octopus and the fishermen wanted to kill it.

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">Rachel doesn't want the fishermen to kill the octopus. <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 32px;">Evidence... "Rachel watched in horror..."

<span style="color: #800000; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 32px;">What do we already know about liquifaction? <span style="color: #800000; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 32px;">It doesn't happen on the hill. It's when water or silt comes out of ground. It happens on low ground.

<span style="color: #800000; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 32px;">Liquifaction is when water and silt come out of the ground. When the soil is shaken so hard it acts like a liquid because it loses it's strength.
