About this unit:

This is a ten-lesson unit of English work based on the reading and writing of a non-chronological report. It is intended for Upper Key Stage 2. This Unit follows the 2014 National Curriculum objectives which are outlined below. The English objectives covered by this unit are highlighted in yellow.
The ten lessons in this Unit allow children to explore, discuss and understand a non-chronological report. During the first week children will explore a non-chronological report based on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Through guided and shared activities children will write their own version of this text ensuring they have included the correct language and organisational features. In the second week, children will carry out their own research about the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco or another famous landmark of their choice. Children will then apply what they have learned in the first week and plan, write and edit a non-chronological report based on their own research and then they will write a non-chronological report independently.
