Reading

While learning from home, you should be aiming for at least 20 minutes reading per day. This can be any type of text – fiction book, non-fiction, comic, newspaper, etc. A reading comprehension Bella the dog has been included with this blog for you to complete if you wish.

Today we would like you to write a non-chronological report about amphibians. As you learnt yesterday, non-chronological reports give people information and facts about things.

There are two video clips for you to watch and there is also some information about amphibians attached to this blog. Alternatively, you can do your own research.
