Reciprocal Reading

 I learnt how to use Reciprocal Reading and keywords on 2 texts called What We Ate and What We Lost.

The first text is What We Ate.The six roles are leader, predictor, clarifier, questioner and summariser. The PDF is about what soldiers ate during the war. They ate: bully beef, jam, canned fruit and vegetables, lack of vitamin c, hard biscuits and water.

The most helpful role was the clarifier role because they identified tricky and unknown words that we don't understand through out the text.

We did reciprocal reading on a PDF called what we ate.

Next we read the second text called What We Lost. This text is talking about where soldiers fought and how many people served, were wounded, killed and injured.

They fought in Gallipoli, the Somme, Messines, Passchendaele and Bapaume.

The most helpful role in this text was the questioner role because they were asking questions about where the battle took place and how many were killed.
