FOR 8-year-old and above: These are 5 BBC articles that I used with my class to boost my pupils’ retrieval skills as well as to improve their speed with vocabulary questions.
There are 5 articles with questions & answer sheets. My children found these articles extremely engaging and amazing to work with during whole class reading sessions because they are relevant and interesting.
The first text is about the UK’s plastic waste export to Turkey and other countries.
The second text is all about how microplastics are effecting life in Indonesia.
The third text is all about Indonesian’s fight against plastic.
The forth text is about the plastic pollution in seas.
The last text is all about deforestation in Kenya and how a man is trying to fight it all by himself with an extremely creative idea!
If you are trying to get your class SATs ready, or improve their timing with retrieval or vocabulary questions, or even trying to make them more confident with inference questions, also check my other comprehension unit based on Oscar Wilde’s The Star-Child here:
