Our next writing consisted of starting to unpick the model and look at examples of a non chronological report. We started off the lesson with a silent conversation where we had an opportunity to unpick the features of the model that had been completed for them. Children were good at identifying fronted adverbials, conjunctions, rhetorical questions and subject specific vocabulary.
Next they worked alongside their partner to unpick some double page spreads that are similar to what they will be producing at the end of this piece of writing. We saw some lovely collaboration between the pairs in crew. Once we were happy, we’d picked all the features out, we created a checklist that we’ll use when we write our own plot points.
