Making Connections

 This week for Literacy we have been learning to make connections. In our groups we read four texts about how soldiers were cared for during the war. The first two were about New Zealand nurses during World

War 1. The third one was about animals and how they were used in war and the last one was about the medics/doctors in the war. 

When we started this week the question was "How were soldiers cared for during war?"

When we put our ideas down I said that they weren't really cared for at all. That they had no beds to sleep in, little food to eat and living conditions in the trenches were horrible. I also noted that medical technology at the time wasn't very advanced, which would make it harder to look after wounded soldiers.

This is our groups Making Connections doc.

At the end of the week we were tasked with making a thank you card towards the nurses in the war. We had to imagine we were soldiers in the war and received care from the nurses.

What is something I can improve on with my poster?
