Non-Chronological Report Shared Write Year 5

(0)
This Year 5 Non-Chronological Report Activity was designed around the theme of Space. As a class we revisited the key features of non-chronological reports, and decided which features would make it onto our success criteria (page 2). This was done using the Hexagonal Thinking grid on the IWB (page 3). Learners then worked in pairs to create their own planets and discuss what details they should include in their non-chronological reports, using the hexagonal thinking grids (page 4). Finally, the non-chronological report was planned using page 1 and 2 of the planning document.
