Inquiry-Knowledge Hazards and Risks

LI: To demonstrate prior knowledge

For inquiry we were learning about hazards and risk.

First we did activities. The first activity was four corners.

We had to go to a corner, the corners were spades, diamonds, clubs and hearts and the person had to pick a card if it was spades, diamonds, clubs and hearts. The last two people had to guess if the card is red or black. 

The second activity is octopus. The two people that are in it had to say something and the person had to run to the end, and if they got tagged they had to be an octopus. 

Next we had to list down names of hazards for each category (School, home,community, sports). 

Lastly we had to come up with some risks for our harzards.

Writing/Metphor

Metaphors are a comparison of two things with a similar quality by saying one object is the other.

The three parts of a metaphor are the main object, the meaning and the comparison.

An example: Jamal was a pig at dinner. The main object is Jamal, the comparison is the pig and the meaning is that Jamal ate messily like a pig.

Metaphor help describe animals, how they act and feelings.
