Module 1
Stone Age Boy
This term we have been using the book Stone Age Boy to help develop ourPrediction, Inference and retrivial skills. We have complete retrivial questions every lesson helping to develop our skimming and scanning technique. Our prediction skills have been developed when predicting what will the book might have been about and also what might happen next. We have used our inference skills when we looked his the boys feelings, Om's family and why the characters chased a Reindeer.

Module 3
Newspapers
To help with our writing outcome this module we began by looking at a range of newspaper and identifying the different stories/reports in them. After this, we started to focus in on different elements of the newspapers using our reading skills. We had to use our retrieval skills to identify different facts from the reports. We then had to use our Inference skills to try and use clues from the report to explain how people might have been thinking or feeling in the report, the author writing the report or the audience reading the report.
