Key Word hunt - Boy on a bike

 


New Zealand is still in lockdown.

Kia Ora, Bonjour, Hello. How are you today?
Miss Farr (our teacher) has sent us stuff to do while we are in lockdown. For Thursday, we have to read this online book about a nine-year-old boy who biked the length of New Zealand. He raised $7,000 for St Johns. This book is really cool and it is such a nice thing to do. After we read the book, we have to summarise the story. Summarising means that you are retelling the important parts of the story/book. Then we have to think of keywords/phrases of the book. After that, we have to use those keywords/phrases to write a brief summary. This was enjoyable because it was fun to read the book and to write a brief summary. This was difficult because I could not think of that many keywords/phrases. I think you should do something like this too because it is really fun and it is teaching you how to summerise.
I hope you enjoyed :)

  1. Kātahi rā, nice work on this one. I like how you outlined the key parts and how it was important for Mac to train rather than just go straight to riding the length of the North Island. Do you think you would be able to set a goal like this and then complete it? What would you want to raise money for?
