Main Ideas Rona and the Moon

LI: To identify main ideas in the text.

Our group watched the video about the story of Rona and the moon and how the moon took rona away. Today we wrote about Rona and the moon it told us about how Rona was lazy and bossy and made her husband do everything for her. For this activity we wrote down the main ideas starting off with the important ideas than after that we then used our negotiation skills to pick out four very important ideas making sure that we all agree that they are very important ideas, Then after that we then picked out three vital ideas again making sure that we all agree that they are vital ideas by using our negotiation skills

I really enjoyed this activity because it strengthened our ability to negotiate with others.
