Create Task | Reading - Term 4

Heya.
Welcome back to another blog post. Today, I'm going to be sharing with you what I did for my, "Reading Create Task" basically, we had to read this article about sitting down or something, and basically telling us to always be healthy. Here's what I did, enjoy!

As I was saying, we had to do four predictions, we did it on a google drawing with four bubbles and each one had a purpose. The first one was what we think would happen in the article by reading  the title. As in, we had to read the title, and write down what we'll think will happen in the article. So this title was called, "Don't sit if you want to keep fit" and also, once we put our prediction down, we had to put a comment highlighting and explaining if our prediction was right or true, so yeah, here's what I put:

- First Bubble, I wrote: The title gives me the idea that this book is probably gonna be facts about why you should be doing some exercise rather than sitting down.

- My comment: My prediction for the title was correct. My evidence is there right there in the first page. It clearly says: "The first major study into the effects of sitting for long periods of time was completed in the 1950s. The researchers compared London Transport bus drivers (who sat most of the time in their jobs) with the bus conductors (who stood and moved around collecting tickets from passenger).

The evidence showed that drivers were 1.5 times more likely to develop a heart disease than conductors were." It clearly says in the last bit of the paragraph that there's evidence that, "Drivers were 1.5 times more likely to develop a heart disease than conductors were."

For the second bubble, we had to do a quick flip through the book and write our second prediction, here's what I put:
- Second Bubble: I did a quick flick through the book, my guess that it’s mainly giving us a warning not to sit all day and actually do something. Exercise, etc.

- My comment: My prediction was I guess a little wrong and a little right. It's mainly focusing on the benefits of standing up, why we should, and why standing makes us more healthy and energetic. But saying all this is actually is possibly warning about us sitting down. It is saying all these things about standing up. But it's basically warning us about the issues of sitting down for a large period of time. So therefore, I believe I'm a bit right and wrong.

For my third bubble, I actually don't know what we had to do, I believe we just read the article or something, Idk. Anyways, enjoy:

- Third Bubble: It may talk about the effects when sitting down for too long. It may include evidence on why we should exercise, by showing us the benefits of exercising. Everyday.

- Comment: Basically true. Technically talked about it in my other predictions. So yeah I think it's true.

I know what your thinking, well I actually I don't, but I do. You're thinking about how I didn't put a fourth bubble, don't worry, it's coming soon. Anyways, yeah, that's about it.

Have you ever predicted something in a book and it's happened?

So yeah, as I was saying, I really hoped you enjoyed this blog post, it's great to share with you my learning and what I've been up too. So anyways, I'll be seeing you next, hope you enjoyed again, and uh.. yeah thank you!

PEACE!
