Description

In this unit, pupils research the anglerfish's appearance and habitat in order to write a non-chronological report. Pupils focus on using a range of fronted adverbials, applying subject-specific vocabulary and writing in clear paragraphs. Pupils edit and publish their reports at the end of the unit.

This unit uses and builds pupils' knowledge of non-chronological report writing from the Year 3 unit 'The Stone Age: non-chronological report'. Pupils write using the structure of an introduction, themed sections and a 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 in the Year 4 unit 'Ancient Greeks or Anglo-Saxons: non-chronological report'.
