Key Learning

- Closed questions give only yes or no answers , which have less no infomation .
For our reading task , we read through the whole text , then we responded to questions , by using the comments tool . We also used our own words to express our own ideas and opinions .
Group 2 created a Google Video , where we took turns sharing 6 facts we learned about the text . We used our Smart searching skills to research about what really happened in the text , and to explain in our own words .
For example: “The disaster occurred on Christmas Eve, with many passengers traveling home to be with their families, which explained the passengers died on the train .
Most Importantly , We enjoyed learning about volcanoes .
