You will be continuing with your newspaper report. This lesson will teach you how to take notes in gathering evidence for your newspaper report. Remember, keep all of your work together as you will need it for future lessons.

In the Guided Reading tab you will find an extract from a text, along with comprehension questions to answer about the text. The answers will be provided tomorrow. Remember to read back through carefully before writing your answers in full sentences.
