Läsutmaningen 2015


Läsning är en av de viktigaste färdigheterna i samhället och därför också i skolan. Därför startar vi nu upp läsutmaningen 2015.

Läsutmaningen är en läs-läxa som löper under hela vårterminen och som syftar till att utveckla elevernas läsning på svenska, såväl vad gäller läs flyt som i läsförståelse.

Målet är att alla elever ska ta läsborgarmärket innan terminen är slut, minst fem lästa böcker. Jag hoppas förstås att alla ska satsa på att läsa fler, helst upp till femton.
Mer om läsborgarmärket och hur det går till kan ni läsa på:




Vänligen Patrik Garney, lärare 5b, SV och SO.

The guidelines for the written or typed report are as follows:

When and where was this person born? What are some important events in
this person’s life that led up to his/her invention?

2nd paragraph: The second paragraph should focus on the invention(s) itself.
What invention(s) is this person most famous for? How or why was it
invented? What is it used for today or what came from it that is used today?
How is it important in your life if at all? How has it changed over time?

3rd paragraph: Any other interesting facts. This paragraph is optional.

The report should be written in paragraph form and not just a list
of answers to the above questions. Each paragraph should be well written:
topic sentence, details and closing sentence. Remember capital letters, full stops, variety etc. Remember to write in your own words and not copy directly from your sources!

The guidelines for the poster and presentation are as follows:
