Maraia - Green Ghana Current Events Term 2 2021

 Green Ghana 

Today in Literacy, we did another Current Events activity. This activity was called Green Ghana, Ghana is a place in Africa. We had to read the article and then answer some questions about the article. After we finished answering our questions, we had to do a little glossary. After we did the glossary we had to do the activity. This activity was fun the page would give us a sentence with one of the words missing and we had to find the missing word in the article and then we had t put it into there square and one of the squares in the line was orange. After we put all the words in, all the letters in the orange square from top to bottom formed a word and that was our answer.  The word I got was "Advantages."
