Game research

WALT: use our prior knowledge to create questions for deeper learning. find and retrieve information from texts.
 This is basicly my favourite game because I play this game with my family  and it's been a family favorite so I wanted to blog about this game.

Authos purpose

The text i read was about a boy who watches too much tv and plays too much video games and so his mother tells him if he can read a book for 30 minutes every day she will buy him a dvd movie to watch her challenge was accepted and she swears he will never be able to put the book down and stop reading and so he reads and reads his mum reckons he will see that the books are better than the movies until theres more his grandad wants him to spend time with him one hour each week to play chess with him his grandad wants to teach him some stuff his mother think's it's a great idea so he can get to know his grandad.


His best friend at school heather is playing netball her parents are making her do it they say she to watches to much tv it's bad for them two because they have to give up their computer chat life because heather has netball practice his best friend wants him to play too so that way they can talk face to face his mother thinks thats also a great idea she thinks they can spend more time together he couldn't believe his eyes when he researched about watching to much tv it said it can cause health problems so he gets caught up in reading and starts to like it for once he also knows how to play chess and is really good at it he also decided to play netball and he also goes for runs with his friend.

I think this story is about watching tv and play game too much is bad for you and can cause damage to you.
