The resource includes a real-life example of a non-chronological report to help students identify the features and structure of the genre. The resource can be used as a tool during English lessons to introduce students to non-chronological report writing and teach them how to write their own reports. Teachers can use the resource to model how to structure a non-chronological report and highlight the importance of factual information, clear organisation, and technical language. Students can then practice writing their own reports on a range of topics, applying what they have learned from the resource. In addition to English lessons, “Writing for a Purpose: Non-Chronological Report” can also support scaffold writing across the curriculum. Students can use non-chronological reports to present information in science, history, geography, and other subjects. This resource can help students understand how to structure and organize their writing in a clear and informative way. Overall, “Writing for a Purpose: Non-Chronological Report” is an excellent learning resource for Key Stage 2 students to develop their informative writing skills and understand the features of non-chronological reports.

“Writing for a Purpose: News Report Recount” is a learning resource designed to help Key Stage 2 students comprehend the essential elements and objectives of writing a news report recount. This resource provides a comprehensive explanation of news report recounts and their primary features. A news report recount is a form of writing that narrates current events or news stories.

The resource also includes a sample news report recount to illustrate how these elements can be utilised in practice. The recount features a third-person narrative, factual descriptions of events, and clear and concise language. This resource can be used in English lessons to introduce children to the genre of news report recounts and provide guidance on creating an effective recount. Teachers can utilise this resource to introduce the topic, offer guidance on how to write a news report recount, and provide examples for children to follow. Furthermore, this resource can be used to encourage and scaffold writing across different subjects. For instance, students can apply the knowledge and skills they have learned from creating a news report recount to write similar pieces for other subjects, such as science or social studies, by using the elements of a news report recount to describe a scientific experiment or a historical event. In conclusion, “Writing for a Purpose: News Report Recount” is a valuable resource that can help children develop their writing skills and understanding of different writing genres, specifically news report recounts.

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.
