Hi Lucy!
ReplyDeleteActivity One:
This is a really thorough list of items you have found Lucy - awesome work! Next time it would be amazing to see you use the information you find to help you write your own list - I would love to hear this from your perspective!
Do you enjoy hiking or going on walks? Is there anything you make sure to take with you each time?
I really like to take fruit when I go on walks.... I don't know what it is about eating an apple in the fresh air but I swear it makes it taste better! :)
Activity Two:
Jenny Shipely sounds like a really interesting woman, did you enjoy reading about her?
I think it's pretty cool that you have written up your activity on our first female Prime Minister! Giiiirrrllll Power! :)
I am not sure that I understand your third fact, was there something in particular from what you read that you were trying to share here?
I will be interested to hear!
Bonus Activity:
This is a really awesome answer for this activity Lucy! I really liked that you have made a clear choice and then supported it well with your reason why.
I also think that it is really sweet that you have considered the teachers that support the students through university, I am sure that they would be very thankful to you!
Is there any other reasons that you can think of for why students should pay for their studies?
Great job Lucy - Keep up the awesome work!
Ellee :)
