In pairs we read the non fiction text “All about mummies”. We took our books outside to the outdoor classroom. Next Miss Aitken read the book to us and we discussed the features of a non fiction text. We read it twice, once for enjoyment and twice for information! We looked at the index and discussed some of the meanings of different words.

Afterwards we had to complete a detective task which involved answering a series of questions and recording our answers. We had to think carefully and look for information in the text. We are going to display our work on our Ancient Egypt display (have a look when passing by!)
