Current Events - The bus strike


This is Cecilia and I's current events on the bus strike that happened on the 19th of February until the 20th on friday ( 24 hours ). I was learning how to summarize a current event using the 5 w's. We first read the article and had to answer the main questions. The bus drivers chose to strike because they wanted to give there boss a strong message or because they wanted to let the public know. We then had to write what the author wanted us to learn from this article. We wrote a point of view to explain how it affected them. The people who were using the bus would feel frustrated because they have to use there vechiles and wait for traffic of make new plans so they can get where they want to go. We got our information from these websites:

Great work Nesi and Cecillia. Your task shows me that you have understood the current event and the LI, to identify the 5 Ws in a current event. You have described two point of view's but next time you could write about two different groups. It sounds like both of your point of views are from the public. It is great that you have explained these point of views using 'because'. Well done!

Thank you for the feed back, I will try do a point of view for the different groups.
