Writing for a Purpose: Non-Chronological Report KS1

“Writing for a Purpose: Non-Chronological Report” is a learning resource designed to assist Key Stage 1 children in understanding the basics of writing and structuring non-chronological reports.

The resource provides a clear explanation of the features of non-chronological reports are and how they are used to provide information about a specific topic. Non-chronological reports are a form of writing that presents information about a subject without following a time sequence.

The resource includes an example of a non-chronological report and demonstrates how to organise information using headings and subheadings. It also provides tips on how to use descriptive language and facts to engage the reader.

This resource can be used in English lessons to introduce children to the concept of non-chronological reports and provide guidance on how to structure one. Teachers can use this resource to explain the purpose of non-chronological reports, provide examples of how to organise information, and encourage children to create their own reports.

In addition, this resource can be used to encourage cross-curricular writing. For example, children can apply their knowledge of non-chronological reports to research and report on topics in science, history, or geography.
