LO. To identify the features of a non-chronological report
We are spending this week learning about non-chronological
reports.
A non-chronological report is a text which is not written in time
order.
They are normally non-fiction texts which give information on a
subject or event, without referring to the order in which things
happen.
Watch me talking about this work Here's a link.
Attached to the assignment are two non-chronological reports
for you to read.
There are 2 Bronze, 2 Silver and 2 Gold.
As you are reading them, look for the different features.
Features of a non-chronological report.
1. An eye-catching heading in a large font
2. An introductory paragraph
3. Text split up into paragraphs and each paragraph is on a
different aspect of the subject.
4. Sub-headings for each paragraph
5. Usually written in present tense
6. Pictures of the subject
7. Captions under each picture to explain what is in the
picture.
8. Diagrams with labels
9. Lists of facts sometimes with bullet points.
10. Boxes containing interesting individual facts to grab the
attention of the reader.
11. Subject specific vocabulary (words only used when talking
about that topic) often in bold.
12. Conclusion – reminding you what the report was about.
Remember you can type directly onto the document and return it
to me through assignments.

Session 3
Maths
1 hour
LO. To recognise unit fractions.
We are going to be learning about unit fractions today.
A fraction is a part of a whole number, and a way to split up a
number into equal parts. It is written as the number of equal
parts being counted, called the numerator, over the number of
parts in the whole, called the denominator. These numbers are
separated by a line.
A unit fraction is any fraction where the numerator (top
number) is 1.
Watch the video and pause and do the activities when you are
asked to.

Scroll down for the workseet. You do not need to print these
off. On Question 4 – draw the shape and then colour in the
correct fractions. (don’t worry if your drawing is not perfect!)

LO. To investigate a healthy diet
Today we are thinking about healthy diets and what we need to

good for us and other bad for us. After this lesson, you will
understand that this is not the case and we need to eat lot of
different types of food to remain healthy.
