Word of the week 1

Today for reading we started a thing called Word of the Week (WotW) where we chose a word and answer the questions. We will do it every week this Term. I did this last year in Year 7 as well.

The word I chose was "gaze". I chose it because it was only the start of the term and I thought it might be a little easier!

3 job profiles

Today for T-shaped literacy, I read 3 school journal articles about people's jobs, the challenges they faced, and how they got into their jobs. I then wrote what kind of qualities you need to have the job. The most fun one was the Aerospace engineer because I normally wouldn't think about that job.

Careers Mini Research

 

for T-shaped literacy, I did a mini-research on the jobs I was interested in. First, I made a brainstorm of all the jobs I was interested in. I then picked 5 of them and researched them. It was pretty easy because I only put 5 in my brainstorm. Then I looked up the pros cons, qualifications, and wrote why they interested me in each job. I hope you like my work and that maybe you are interested in that job too! The Slideshow
