Ipad, Ipads...we've been using our iPads!

We have created a Room 13 news programme called GLS LIVE, where we listen to a podcast from the BBC on Mondays and we choose stories we like and re-tell them using our own words.

WALT listen to information and record the important facts.

Please enjoy our "how to..." video and our very 1st  newscast.

Please leave us a comment so we can reflect on our progress.

Listening and re-telling

Today Room 13 listened to the BBC World News for Schools podcast.

We are practising our listening skills and then re-telling the news story in our own words using the 5W’s, Who, What, Where, When and Why.

Here is today’s story about a man who fell 300 metres off a mountain in Scotland. Let’s see if we got all the W’s.

Class recount:

Adam Potter, a scottish man, survived a 300 meter fall off a mountain and he still wants to keep climbing.He  survived a 300 meter fall but only had a few cuts and  no broken bones.He fell off a mountain in Scotland near Ben Nevis.

in February. Adam Potter tumbled  and  slipped off  the mountain and still  survived.   It  didn’t turn him off climbing.
