These whole class reading sessions aim to develop children’s comprehension skills, whilst introducing them to a number of dinosaur non-fiction texts.

The three sessions include the extracts/ texts and presentations for the whole class reading sessions on:

-Everything You Know about Dinosaurs is Wrong! Nick Crumpton;
-Tyrannosaurus Rex - Ben Garrod;
-The Insiders Children’s Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs.

Each whole class reading session contains a series of activities aiming to develop children’s retrieval, explanation, inference, prediction and summarising skills. There is also a vocabulary check immediately after each 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 sessions are best suited for children across KS2, although with minor adaptations they could feasibly be used with slightly younger and older year groups.
The resources are also suitable for home/ remote learning.
