 Na kai, k Aura eu maili i padar, Aura maili i padar, Aura maili i padar, So they may choose a book out of their book box that they've already read with a little note for Mum or Dad saying, try this with me, read this to me or I'm just learning to read this, can you help me when I get stuck? What I call a reading contract is when I have about a weeks worth of activities that relate to one book and the children have control. I have to get it done by the end of the week and they can do it all on the first day if they want to but they work through the activities and then we check in Monday, Wednesday, Friday and we do a wrap-up of the book at the end and then we see what falls out of it and because there's a glossary I talk to them about alphabetical order and I've given them a little alphabetical order activity so that they can try and put some words into alphabetical order so they have to write their own wee story too. I usually try and do something that's quite specific to a story like a retelling or a sequencing activity broadly related to what the story was about, something kind of fun like a word finder or a picture. That particular book I've selected for a really big group of children, it's a turquoise book but I've got children who can read through to gold. They're doing a reading contract and they want to learn a little bit about Samoa for Samoan Language Week so I've just found a couple of websites that back up some of the stuff that they've read using the iPad. They just hold it over the QR code and it takes them to a website that shows them some examples of siapa cloths that they can then draw a picture of their own and then the other one actually asks them to do some more reading so they get to read their book then go to the website then read the website and then find some information in that text.
