Y6T2 Narrative reading
Date of issue: Nov. 2003
What is it?
The object of this unit is to provide suggestions, ideas and materials to support teachers in helping children to understand and respond to narrative texts, and to develop higher order reading skills. Key to the expansion of children’s understanding will be the teacher’s skill in questioning. All children need frequent exposure to ‘open’ questions that allow and encourage deduction, speculation, prediction, inference and evaluation. These should be part of the ‘book talk’ that takes place at various times in the classroom to enhance and develop children’s analytical thinking. (NLS objectives: Y6T2 T1-2, T7-8, S4, W7)
