We are working on our understanding of text this week. This means that we need to read a piece of text and explore what the words mean on their own and as a full piece of text. An important part of this is inference – this means reading between the lines and working out extra information. Another important part is knowing the meaning of tricky words.

For homework, go on one of the following science news websites, read a few articles and write a summary of the information in the article.
