Comprehension:Describe how you think learning and life at school is for Zoe. Summarise your ideas into a paragraph using at least 6 sentences.
I think that life for Zoe at school could be a struggle sometimes because she can’t hear so it must be at least a little bit hard. The reason that I think it is hard is because some people who are deaf find it really hard but I kind of think that Zoe can handle it. She looks like she’s having lots of fun in the book and so I think she doing really well. Zoe is just like everyone else.
Application:What questions would you ask Zoe if you got to interview her?
I would ask her how it feels to be deaf. I would also like to ask her nicely if she could teach me some sign language.
