To activate into our experience day we refreshed our subject knowledge of physics, with a particular focus on our CS2 expeditionary learning all about forces. What better way to do this other than a Kahoot! We then focused on our writing focus of exploring features in a non chronological report. To begin with we focused on identifying the presentational features and with a partner analysed the text’s purpose and audience of our model. We then delved deeper by reading and identifying the language features whilst considering the purpose. We did the same again with another non chronological report on a different subject to reiterate the text-type specific features in non chronological reports.
Experience Day Part 2
In part 2 of our experience day, we began critiquing presentational features of various non chronological reports made by children to spark our imagination. We also chotted ideas for titles and headings using miss’ help sheet she had created. Finally, we planned the layout of our individual non chronological reports.
Sentence Days
So far we have written 4 plot points of our non chronological report. We have retrieving facts from a given text based on our structure, then up-levelled based on our targets. Throughout the process we have used childrens examples to critique in order to help us purple pen our own work. We will be ready to draft next week and we cannot wait to publish them into beautiful double page spreads!
