Literacy

This term, we will be learning how to write Newspaper reports. We will be learning what newspaper reports are and where we find them. The children will develop the understanding that a newspaper report's purpose is to provide the readers with information about what's happening in the world. We will also be learning how a newspaper report is structured and the key features included. For example, they will always have a headline, short introduction, and main body of the article. They sometimes use images and visuals too.

This year, one of our main priorities is reading. Our Class Reads take place at the end of the school day. We will listen to a variety of authors and this term, will focus on Roald Dahl. We will use his books in our guided reading sessions, where we will work together to understand the text using our comprehension, grammar, vocabulary and memory skills.
