Description

In this unit, pupils research the Anglo-Saxons' settlements and farming to write a non-chronological report about them. Pupils focus on writing with cohesion, using a range of fronted adverbials, subject-specific vocabulary and Year 4 level sentence structures. Finally, pupils present their reports.

This unit uses and builds pupils' knowledge of non-chronological report writing from the Year 4 unit 'Anglerfish: non-chronological report'. Pupils again write using the structure of introduction, themed sections and conclusion; they also write using a range of formal and viewpoint fronted adverbials and subject-specific vocabulary to ensure their writing flows cohesively. This unit prepares pupils for more non-chronological report writing with increased sophistication of vocabulary choices in the Year 5 unit, 'The Aye-Aye or Wild cats: non-chronological report'.
