In reading we have been learning to apply some criteria to evaluate texts eg accuracy of information and presence of bias with mr brown

Here is a link to our online modelling book

We have been evaluating texts against the following four criteria:

1. Readability
2. Accuracy
3. Relevance
4. Quality of language/ information.

These documents show evidence of my learning during this unit:

• Describing Author's Purpose
• Criteria to evaluate texts
• Evaluating a range of texts

My Next Step:is to get better at evaluating texts

Term 2 book review

 My book i have chosen is one of my first books I read which is Battle of Britain. It is about a man named harry woods , it is all about the Battle of Britain and how he lived in a little town and fort in the war    

current events

WALT: I can successfully research a current event.

Here is a link to our online modelling book for this unit of learning.

The National Standard that I have been aiming for during this unit of learning is

• 
  

• Year7/8: I can use appropriate skills and technologies to find and use a range of texts for specific purposes.
• 
  

Each week we have read a short text about a current event/ topic. We then formed questions based on what we had read.  After this we researched the answers to our questions and finally we gave our opinions on what we had found out.

Here is some evidence of my learning.

My Next Step is to continue to  apply the reading and  research skills that I have learned in a variety of other areas.
