LI: to make connections with myself, the text, and the world.
This week me and my group read a story about a marathon named the “Comrades Marathon”, (a marathon is basically a long foot distance race, most marathons are 42 km long). We started off by predicting what the text would be about, I predict marathons because I use pictures and the title of the story as evidence to back up my prediction. Then we added some more effort to our commenting by using words like “might, should, could, would” and also “because” to make our comments a little more deeper. We learnt that the Comrades Marathon is a 87 kilometers, 54 miles and a 12 hour run. We also learnt that the meaning of the word “Endurance” is similar to motivation, to never give up on what your focusing.
I found this activity motivational because I have learnt to not give up on what I want to focus on, like using Endurance.
