Literacy Tasks

My classes main literacy tasks are Cloze, and SRA. This week, I got my Cloze and SRA completed on Monday. I got two wrong in my Cloze, but it was still marked off because there is no point in sending me back just to swap two words around. In my SRA I got it marked off first try. Here is what my SRA answer sheet looked like.

What’s your story?

I would not have because I just couldn’t. I can’t really bring myself to kill.✓


This SRA was about a dingo and the father in the story was supposed to shoot it, but he couldn't bring himself to do it, because he thought it seemed unfair. The "What's your story?" part of the SRA is where you have to explain yourself due to something that happened in the story. This SRA's "What's your story?" asked me if I would've shot the dingo in the story and why. My answer was "I would not have because I just couldn't. I can't really bring myself to kill."

Every time we get 3 SRA's all correct in a row, we move up a level. I am nearly on the highest level of my box. Next week I hope to move up a level.
