Investigating Light - Two Non-Fiction Reading Comprehension Sessions!
These whole class reading sessions aim to develop children’s fluency and comprehension skills, whilst enabling them to gain a deeper understanding of light, through reading a comprehensive age-appropriate non-fiction text investigating the nature and properties of light. The text aligns with the upper KS2 curriculum expectations for light.
The reading is followed by a series of activities aiming to develop children’s retrieval, explanation, inference, prediction and summarising skills. It also contains a vocabulary check immediately after the extract is read to clarify any unfamiliar/ difficult language.
The tasks are comprised of quick-check questions, solo thinking, pair/ group discussions and deeper thinking activities. The text is well-presented, clear and informative and is freely available on Epic (the link to the text is hyperlinked into the first slide of both PowerPoint presentations).
The session is best suited for children in years 4-6 although with suitable adaptations it could feasibly be used with slightly younger and older year groups.
