Hello Year 5, 

 

This week I thought we would focus on some non-fiction writing, a kind of writing called non-chronological reports. All this means is you present information about a subject under headings.

There are a number of features that we normally see in a non-chronological report, these are: 

 

 

Can you read the example above and see if you can spot these different features?

You can use these headings to help you plan your report, but you can think of your own headings if you would prefer: 

 

 

Enjoy! Remember there are new activities for you to access on Education City as well. 

 

Have a good week everyone.
