Phase 2

Organise ideas into general themes, subheadings, key details and information when planning a non-chronological report (paired response, self-assessment against agreed success criteria).

Phase 3

Write a paragraph for a non-chronological report on a particular theme, using subheadings, key details and information to structure the text (marking and feedback against agreed success criteria).
