HOME LEARNING - SUMMER TERM WEEK 1 - READING ACTIVITIES
Please continue to read each day. This can be to an adult, quietly to yourself or alongside an audio book. Try to read a variety of books, including fiction stories, non-fiction information and maybe some poetry!
60 Second Comprehensions - Click on links below
These are very short pieces of text (around 100-150 words) with accompanying questions that focus on vocabulary, retrieval, prediction, summarising and inference. There is an accompanying answer sheet ... so no peaking first!
There is a guidance sheet for parents to explain how to use the comprehension and the types of questions.
We have suggested two specific comprehensions for this week:
Ancient Egyptians: "An Extract from Howard Carter's Diary" - linked to our previous history topic
Stone Age: "Cave Paintings" - linked to our new history topic
There are a total of 4 in each section, so feel free to do more if you are enjoying them
