1a.) Literacy – GPS Recap: Hyphens to clarify meaning and to avoid ambiguity

Today, we are going to look at other uses of hyphens.  Here is the short activity we will do in our online lesson.

 

1b.) Literacy – The Life of David Attenborough

Using the text that we read yesterday morning and your notes from your research in the afternoon, I would like you to produce a fact file about David Attenborough.

You can either do this on paper or electronically (using Word, Publisher or PowerPoint).  Think about how non-fiction texts are often set out.

Here are a list of things you should include:

  • A title
  • Information grouped into separate sections
  • Subheadings for each section
  • Information within each section to be written clearly and punctuated correctly
  • Pictures and captions to enhance the information (either hand drawn or from the internet)
  • ‘Did you know?’ or ‘interesting facts’ sections
