Over the past couple of weeks we have been reading different novels and doing different jobs.
This week my job is the word master and my WALT is to: identify the meaning of unknown words using a range of strategies. So... I can decode word when I read and understand the text more carefully.
My word was 'gipsy'.
Word masters have to pick out different words that we don't know and find the definition of the word, I also had to put the definition in my own words, put down different words that have a similar meaning (e.g. tourist/traveller.) draw the word and use the word in a sentence (e.g. Our gipsy caravan has black, blue, red and purple patterns all over it with window box flowers.)
