READING COMPREHENSION 25

Newspaper report on Snowl Leopards Part 1

Newspaper Report: Text Structure

For our first reading task this week we are continuing to work with the teachers

from the Oak National Academy Online Learning website.

We are working with their Week 9 English lesson 1 on ‘Newspaper report’.

The reading comprehension skill being practised in this lesson is: Text Structure

We are going to answer questions that look at the whole structure of the text

and the how the different sections link together.

This link will take you straight to this week’s lesson:

https://classroom.thenational.academy/lessons/reading-comprehension

Today’s lesson is: Newspaper Report: Reading Comprehension – Comment on

the structure of a text

Lesson 1 of 5 (Oak National Trust Week 9, 22nd June)

Work your way through the activities on the website. Make sure that you watch

the first half of the video by Mr Mac (and his news reporting team) before

answering the reading comprehension questions.

Below you will find copies of the slides from the Oak National Academy ‘Main Activity’.

You may find it easier to read the text and answer the questions using these pages, rather

than working online, as the Google slide show on the Oak National Academy website can

be tricky to use. Do what works best for you.

*Remember to go back to the video with Mr Mac when you have finished

your work so that you can mark your work with him.*

Follow these instructions to help you answer the questions accurately:

WRITING ACTIVITY 15

Write A Newspaper Report on the Snowl Leopard

For our writing task this week we are continuing to work with the teachers

from the Oak National Academy Online Learning website.

We are completing their Week 9 English lessons on ‘Newspaper Reports’.

The skill being practised this week is: Using the key features of a newspaper

report to compose a piece of writing

You will be completing this writing task over 2 days:

Day 1: Planning your writing

Day 2: Writing a newspaper report and editing your work

This link will take you straight to this week’s lesson:

https://classroom.thenational.academy/lessons/to-use-key-features-in-order-to-write-own-composition-2042b6

The lesson is: To use key features in order to write own composition: Writing a newspaper report

Lesson 5 of 5 (Oak National Trust Week 9, 22nd June)

Day 1

1. Complete the introductory quiz.

2. Watch the first half of the video with Mr Mac (did Ronnie spot the elusive Snowl

Leopard on his recent trip to the Artic circle?)

3. Read the newspaper report on slides 2 to 5 on the ‘Worksheet’ page to help you gather

ideas for your own report and remind yourself of some of the key features of a newspaper

report.

4. Use slides 6 to help you gather ideas for your own newspaper report. Remember to

draw some pictures as well to support your notes!

5. Remember to talk through your plan with someone so you can check that it all makes

sense and that you’ve not missed out any important details.

Day 2

1. If you want, then get yourself into role by dressing up as a reporter. You might even

find a microphone so you can read out your report at the end.

2. Use slides 7 and 8 to help you gather some ambitious words and phrases for your

writing.

3. Use slides 9 and 10 to remind yourself of the key features that you are trying to use in

your newspaper report. Watch the video with Mr Mac @19mins 55 if you want to go

through the key features with him.

4. Combine this information with your picture plan and your planning notes to help you

write the first draft of your newspaper report.

5. Read through your first draft to edit and improve your work (check for things like:

capital letters, full stops, the structure of a newspaper report, inverted commas for quotes,

adverbs. Do your sentences make sense?)

6. Look back at the original newspaper report on Snowl Leopards. Which ideas can you

‘magpie’ to make more improvements to your writing?

5. Return to the video with Mr Mac to mark your work (@21mins 35).

Don’t forget to be proud of your work and share with somebody. This could be someone at

home, emailing it to a relative, emailing it your teacher or uploading it on Twitter and tag

school using @WellingtonPSBD2.

Below you will find copies of the slides from the Oak National Academy ‘Worksheet’.

You may find it easier to read the text using these pages, rather than working online, as

the Google slide show on the Oak National Academy website can be tricky to use. Do

what works best for you.
