INTRODUCTION We are about to read and study the novel, 'Boy Overboard', by Morris Gleitzman. This is a story of adventure, courage and football. The main character, Jamal and his sister, Bibi leave their home country of Afghanistan, and go on an incredible journey to get to Australia. TASK On the left is a word cloud of some of the key words that you will read in the story. Before we begin, it is important that you know what each of these words mean. STEP ONE Go to the next slide and Look up the meaning of each of the words by double tapping each in turn, then tapping 'define'. To do this you need to work in the editing mode. STEP TWO: MATCH Then match the key words with the images provided on the next on the next slide. You can work with a friend to complete this task. Just make sure you both have a copy of the matched-up words. Screen shot your finished slide, so that you have a copy of it in your camera roll. STEP THREE: REMEMBER Complete the sentence writing task on the final slide. STEP FOUR When you have completed all the tasks on the presentation, submit it back in to your teacher's submit folder. It might be a good idea to screen shot the key words page so that you have a easy reference on hand. Boy Overboard- Key Words
