Reading -The Cay, E-portfolio Sample - Comprehension
Write an “ITTM” for the following sentences:
After a moment of silence, I heard the sizzle of the water as Timothy doused the torch.
I think that means that after a minute of no talking, Philip could hear a crackling sound from the H2O and at the same time Timothy put out the fire.
For more than a week, I knew he had been labouring over nails to turn them into fish hooks.
I think that means that for over 7 days Philip knew that Timothy was converting metal screws into sharp curved tools used to catch sea creatures.
Roadblocks! There were many roadblocks for us in this book! Choose at least two of the following words to explain and ‘clear the roadblock’ for.

Write down at least three things Phillip learnt whilst on the cay (for example, about himself, caring for others and life etc)
1. A lesson Philip learnt was to make the most of what you have because it may not always be there.
2. The second lesson Philip learnt was how to survive in the wild with nothing but clothes.
3. The final lesson Philip learnt was how to adapt without his eyesight, instead he used his sense of touch and hearing.
