Hello, Jack. Oh hi, so how are you so so so so? Why so so? Because I'm a little bit tired. Oh, I understand me too. I know what that feels like. Will you get to when do your lessons finish today? I have one half hours after me. Okay, so what I'm doing today, you can see me fiddling with this. I'm trying to get this so that we can both see it is I found a map style reading reading comprehension. So we'll have a look at this together and we we can decide on the answers together, but we can stop and explain it. So this is like the map and you've done the map, didn't you before? Well, did you try the map test before? Map map map p map. Yes. Yes, you did. Yes. Okay, so we're going to try and have a look at how it's set out, how we do it and we'll stop at each one and answer. So it's not a test, this lesson, it's a lesson to find out how how it looks, how we can answer the questions. So let me just Oh, this is a little there we go. So as you know, with the map style test, it's not one grade. It's grades two to five. So it's a lot of years in there. So they try to average, they try to go in the middle and see which which way you go. So first of all, let's look at how this looks. Now when you did the map, did you do this at home? No, no, you go. You went to where did you go? School dramap course has one at school. I see, I see. So you're at school and you're at the computer. Is that right? I see. Okay. Can you pull the camera down, Jack, because I'll need to see you for some of the answers. Good. Good. Okay, so let's have a look at the beginning. It says this part, it will tell you about the test. So can you read this, Jack, the overview. This is computer. Meditive system designing the cell of N W E A map test, it was imthe 45 questions. However, each student will complete only 15 questions selected based on their performance level. So you know that the map test, it becomes harder and harder. If you answer the test correctly, you get another question. If you answer that one correctly, you get another question. So that's how it works. And each question it decides, it decides, okay, this is your level and it adapts to your level. So it's it's different to most tests. Okay, so let's have a look at here. Okay, this is called adaptive questioning. So can you read this Jack? Question questions, the students move on to a challenge. Question inququizing, the student gave a easier question. Very good. So it never tells you if you're wrong or right with the map test. So if you're wrong, you get an easy question. If you're right, it makes a harder question. So that's how it works. And that's how it works out your score. So it wants to know your exact level. Okay, so let's have a look here. So start a question two of 46 then let's have a look at all of these bits here. So first of all, okay, don't need that, don't need that. We need this one. So we'll just start keep on this page. Okay, so this is a starter question. So let's read it together and again, we'll look like we did last time. We'll look for any words we don't know and then we'll try to skim and scan. It's very short. So this one, we'll see how you go. So first of all, can you circle, Jack, any words that you don't know? Okay. Okay, brilliant. Only two. So that's good. So we've got practical. Let's do purposes separately and containers. And again, we'll do it like last time. We'll see and it will imagine you're in the test and we'll see if you can try to guess them. So we've got here practical. What does it sound like? Practical? I don't know okay, let's think about hmm I'm gonna try and do this without just telling you the answer. So if we don't know, okay, I don't know what this sounds like. What about let's take off some of the last letters so let's see practice. Let's take that. Does that sound like anything you know? 嗯。What is? It, what do you do for tests practice? What must you do for when you have a test? What must you do before the test? Raditions reading what's the word? That's a bit like practical, what you must do before any test, before maths test, English test. I want you to practice all the test. What must you do? Practice? Yes, exactly. So I'm not sure what I'm doing. Okay. So practice is to practice for the test. What do you think it means if I say you need to practice for the test? But I say, Jack, you need to practice this one. What does it mean? The community practice means practice, yet what does practice mean? You. Need to practice this one. Do it. Yes, that's it. So sounds like practice you need to do do something so practical is when you do something. It's not when you think something, it's not when you're doing nothing. It's doing something so practical sounds like practice, which we know is doing things and that is the same. So doing something very good. So you did that by yourself, Jack, and that's in the map test. Do the same thing. Purposes, okay, what does purpose sound like? Purposes? What does purposes sound like? Right, purpose, yes, purpose. And when you do something on purpose, you do it for a reason. So if I do something on purpose, I've done it for a reason. If I say, okay, Jack, I am not telling you the meaning on purpose, I'm doing it for a reason. So that's the meaning of this one. So doing something for a reason. And containers, I'm also going to add hollows because I think we'll need that one. Okay, so containers again. So sounds like this one sounds like purpose. And I say if I'm doing something on purpose, I'm doing it for a reason. Okay? And then containers. So if I say to you, Jack, I want you to contain all of these cockroaches in a jar, what do I mean? I. Want you to contain all of this Candy inside a jar. So. If I say I want you to contain all of the Candy inside a jar. All of the Candy in the dryeah, I want you to contain it in the jar. What do I mean? I contain all the things in the inside the jar exactly. So the container is the jar. So it's something that can have something inside it. So something like a jar. That can have something inside, but not always that can have something inside it. So doing very well. Okay, I'm also going to this one here hollowed. So that one can be a tricky one. I'm going to tell you that one because that one is a bit like something that sounds hollow, hollow, hollow and hollow. That sounds like an echo, doesn't it? Echo, echo, echo, hollow, hollow, hollow. When you hollow something or when something is hollow, it means there is a big space inside. So this has a big is big and hollow because there's lots of space inside, nothing inside, just space inside. So also I might say a hole, here's a hole and some grass and we say, Oh no, there's a hollow in the grass. So that's a hollow because there's nothing inside and it's very dangerous if you get stuck because there's nothing inside to stop you falling. Okay? So that's a hollow. Does that make sense to you, Jack? Yeah okay, so if you hollow something like the verb, that means you make it have nothing inside, you take all the things out so you make it have nothing inside. So to make something have nothing inside like this one, okay, so those are the words. And then can you underline the word that is repeated in a different color? Yes, the word you see a lot in a different. Very good pumpkins. So what do you think this is all about? Pumpkin pumpkins? Because we see this word a lot. So it's about pumpkins. And we've got the word hollowed. We've got practical purposes, we've got containers. And that is it. Well done. Okay, so let's read it. So can you read this one? Americans have gronorth America for over 7000 years. I America use pumpkins for food and medicine. They also use them for other projects, but partical purpose. They even used her loout on kas. So word pumping controdrasome large mirror. Good, and read the question. Read the bottom part. We well can grow in North America. Okay? So we've got lots about pumpkins. You are right now in any reading, they're going to have one or two bits of information about something. So we're going to find out how much information. So first of all, can you find what things do they use the pumpkins for? So underline, how many things do they use the pumpkins for? Then he says many things, yes, underline it. Underline all the things the pumpkins are used for. Okay, and more. Lovely. So you've got food, medicine, storage containers and practical purse purposes. So lovely. They are all the things they were used, used for. So they eat them. They also used them for medicine. Pumpkin, how do you think they use it for medicine? Soup or make medicine on their way. Yeah maybe with the pumpkin. It can help with flu. It can help with coats. This was a long time ago. And then they use for practical purposes. So we've got this one here. Practical. They use it to do something for a reason. So does it tell us exactly what they do here? And what does it mean for practical purposes? Particular purpose, maybe remember the meaning. Practical purposes. Political purpose is like different, many different purpose, very good, many different things that they've got it for food, they've got it for medicine, they've got it for lots of different things that they need to do something, not just think about it. And storage containers. What is a storage container, do you think? What will they do with the pumpkin? With the storage container? Look at the meaningful container. But the meaning what we came to with container. Something like jar better have something like that's right, they put things inside it. So let's write that down. So they use the pumpkins to. Or food. Medicine. For lots of different things, yes. And for putting things inside. So this is all okay, there we go. This is all something that you need to do when you when you do the map test. Try to do this by yourself. So we looked at the words, we don't know. We tried to guess the words. We say, okay, I've seen a little bit of this before. Then we underline all the different uses because we can see there are lots of they are talking about one or two different things and then we try to translate in our words. So let's see if that helps us get a higher score. It should do. Okay. So I'm going to take away that and that. Okay. Now it's a good idea to read it twice because they're only small. One time to understand it, two times to really know what all the things mean. So can you read it again? Donground North America for over 10000 years, native of America used pumpkin for food and medision. He also used for other prostical purpose, then even use hollow out pumpkins and straws containers. The world commeans Roman on. And the question. You read the question of lapscin North America. Okay? So when you read, try to be a little bit more clear. North America, very good. So here is, let's see if we can make this a little bit bigger. There you go. Well, abc, so can you tick the correct one? Every years ago. Okay circle circle the right one. Thcker with the cloin pen. Okay, so let's put this here. Okay, so there we go. Correct? Fantastic. So this one says go to section three so well done and it helps you to really understand the question, to really understand the reading and then you're likely to get it correct. So we're gonna to go to section 31a. There we go. Okay, so then it's a little bit longer so the same kind of thing but this one will be a little bit more difficult because you got that one correct. So every time you get something correct, it got a little bit more difficult. So again, let's do the same thing. Can you underline all the difficult words? Okay, so let's have a look at these ones opportunity. Now we're going to do the same so that we want you to get higher and we want you to get the harder questions because then you get the higher score. So first of all, let's pervocabulary and then we'll try and do the same thing. So I'm going to say now when you're in the test, you need to do it quicker, but it's okay. We're we're only learning. So we can be slow at the moment. So we've got opportunity. Yes, opportunity. So have you heard this word before? No. Okay. So opportunity, you might say something like this, or I have the opportunity to go to Thailand because my dad got me, got me a free ticket to Thailand. So what do you think opportunity means? I'll. Do one more. I have an opportunity to go to a football match because my friend gave me a ticket. To take it. So if I say, Oh, I have an opportunity to go to see the football because my friend gave me a ticket to see the football. What do you think it means? Look like a full. So this is just an example, to use the word opportunity. I had the opportunity to go to the football match because my friend gave me a ticket. Or I might say I have the opportunity to go to swimming today because my school finished early. What do you think opportunity means? 嗯。I have the opportunity to get the early bus because I was able to leave school ore early. What is opportunity, do you think? Early. So I had opportunity in lots of different ways. The first one, I said, I have the opportunity to go to football because my friend gave me a free ticket. Second one, I have the ops. A chance. A chance. Yes, I think that's what you mean, a chance to do something, a chance to do something good, positive. So a chance to do something positive. And then you've got colonies. So colonies is, do you do history at school yet? Yes, no. Jack. No, you don't do history, so can you pull the camera down because I can't see you? Okay, so a colony is from a very, very long time ago countries, England, China, also there was Italy, Rome. They went into other countries and took the country, and they made the people speak in the language. So in the English colonies, the English went into other countries and they made people speak English and they made people eat English food. And so it was not always good, because these people perhaps did not want people to come into their country and take it and take them. But they were called colonies, colonies. So this is when countries, a long time ago. Took other countries, you will do this in history like England. Took India. Then India. Spoke English. Had English. And English some English food, but the Indian food is so delicious that actually we kept it with mostly Indian food, English food. So not not a good thing because these these countries were trapped. Okay. And then you've got regions. So a region is a part of a country. So part of a country. So, Jack, what part of Japan do you live in? Yoso, is that right? You know, okay, so you could say kyoso is a region of Japan. What do they eat in this area? Just in your area. They eat Japanese. Food, is it the same as every part of Japan? Not very, but okay. I'm looking for. Okay. So part of a country, I'm going to just stick to the uk because I don't know Japan too well. So I would say Cornwall. Is a region of the United Kingdom. A long time ago. People spoke a different language. In Cornwall. Okay. So it's but it's still part of England. So that's a region. And then you've got this one. These ones are not these ones are nouns. Massachusetts, you can see they're listed. They're different separate ones, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. What do you think they are? They all know. Nouns. They are nouns. Yes. What do you think they are? Or seals, they are things. What kind of things? Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island. Right? A place, places. Exactly. So they are places. So that one's nice and easy. Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island are places. Okay? And so we know these are places. Can you circle the repeated word in here? So in a different color, circle the repeated word you can find. 嗯，嗯。No, so which which is the word they say lots. Which word can you see? Lots of times. The colonies, colonies eat, let me see, can you see it again? Yes yes, you are right. That is a lot of time. So colonies, yes. And you can also see England, can't you, a lot of times. Can you underline the other England lands? Yeah. So there's one how about in the first part. England okay, I'm lying. The other England. Lands cony Yep, so can you underline the other engin this part also? All the England Yeah underline all the England lands. Okay. So what do you think this is about? There are more. So what do you think this text is about? About England, England and the. Opportunity. So England and they're saying that again, the other one. What was the other word you underlined? Lots. The niccolonies. So what do you think this is all about? One country took another country, England took India than English spoenglish English and English schools and English. So what do you think this is going to be about? Before we read it, what do you think it's all about this piece of writing? What do you think? So. England like to okay what what part what part of the world did it take in this part? Hmm. So you think it's about England and what more information? England and America America yes. So actually, England took parts of America also. So let's let's read this out. And then we'll look at the questions so nice and clear this time. So we'll read it twice so we understand it and we'll see if we were right. So nice and clear. Can you read this out, Jack? I think 1400, many people lost their jobs. There was old enough to eat this hard times made people want to move North America opportunity. Many people from England dreamed of moving to America. At that time, there was no state in there is America go, there are certain colonies. And they have been settled by Europeans and separating to the New England, the middle colonies and southern colonies. The England. Yes, connect code. New I'm and horhode island. Okay, so now tell me now you've read this, what is it about? What does this writing tell us all about? England wanted to move to America and wanted to move to America. At that time, the people in America were Native Americans. Do you know about Native Americans? You know about those. Okay? I show you a picture. So long, long time ago, the people who owned should have owned America were here, this one. So let me get you a picture. They still live in America, but England did a lot of bad things to them, unfortunately. So. There you go, this one here. Do you know this? Have you seen pictures of Native Americans before? No, no. Okay. So they lived a long time ago that America was only Native Americans. And then the Europeans came and took America from them, so that not only the English, but the French, German or Europeans came into this big, big country and took parts of it. So they also wanted to go to America because in England it was very difficult. So I'm going to leave this one. Let's move him down. And then I'm going to put this at the side so you can still see it when we answer the question. So let's go. Sorry about this. There we go. Okay, let's put this at the side so you don't need to lose that. There you go. We'll make that a little bit smaller. Okay, so there you go. And then I'm going to scroll down here and we'll do the questions. So why did people begin to move to North America? More opportunity, better weather, more farming. So choose which one you think. And here is the writing. If you need to recap, try to choose the one you really do think is correct. Or. Let's see more opportunity and a chance to do something positive. So if we look at the words here, chance to do something positive, that sounds maybe correct. Well done. Okay, so you see you're getting them right. It may a little bit difficult now with me because we're reading it and we're trying to understand. But when you do the test, you will be more quick with this. So you will quickly look for the words, don't understand this, don't understand this, don't understand this. What can this be? I try to work it out, then look for the repeated words, try to understand what the whole text is about, then read it just like we did today. And you can see this gets you the right answer. So I didn't give you any of these answers. So let's go to what does it say, section 52a. There we go. Okay, so now even harder because you got the last one correct. So let's let's figure out this one. Now I think what we'll do, because you can see that the first question was about England and the colonies. The very first question was about America. What do you think this is going to be about? About being family, England or North America? Yes, I guess so. So each time your questions are getting a little bit more difficult, but the subjects are similar, aren't they? We started with a nice easy one about pumpkins in North America, then we did the colonies in America from England and Europe, and then now we are going to another one about England and America. But it will be a little bit more difficult. So this time we're going to just very we'll just try and read it and then we'll do it a different way round. So let's go over here. Okay, I will scroll down. Okay. Can you read from the first paragraph and then we'll talk about it? I'm reading. Hello, Jack. 染目度代二真空出S。Pennvania, New York, New Jersey and. Deldelaware near England, owthe middle colies have excellent soil. The soil is perfect for growing wheat and other greins. The middle economies become known as the black colonies because of the successful farming. Okay, so we'll stop there. Can you underline all the places in this one? Just the first paragraph. Don't know words or the places in the first paragraph. Very good. So we've got Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, New England. And what were they? All all these areas. So we'll say, this is Pennsylvania. You've got New York, New Jersey, New England. Now where were all these places? What's the big place that kept them all inside? Or. Places? Yeah. So all these places are inside a big area. What's the big area called? A miracle, yes, underline that one. So underline that you are correct. But is not in paragraph one, the middle colonies is not what you said here. That's what I heard. I heard maybe wrong, but this is right. The middle colonies. So in the middle colonies, you have New York, you have New Jersey, you have Delaware, you have New England. So inside all the middle colonies, the places that England and Europe, Europe took. So why did they like the middle colonies? Oh. Because there has the good soil. And what was the soil good for? Growing in vegetables. And yes, exactly. So they have very good soil, which means they could grow really nice vegetables and grains. And grains is used to make bread. So they became the bread basket colonies, because you can make really good bread in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, New England. So these are all under the middle colonies. We don't call them that anymore because this was a long, long time ago. Now it's just America so we are going to leave that here and tomorrow we will do this one and we'll try and speed up and see how that makes a difference. So very good because you got them right now we're gonna na learn tomorrow we'll learn how to do it under time. Okay, so I'll see you tomorrow Jack. Okay, boy.
