LO: To create sub headings
What are the different features within a non fiction text?
(Title, contents page, glossary, Index, heading, subheading, photo, label, diagram)
Choice a nonfiction book and identify these features. What are the purposes of these features?
We are focusing on the use of subheadings. They tell us what the information in about.
Sub-headings are normally questions that are answered in the text.
We can use the 5 questions starters to create subheading
(Who, What, When, Why, Where)
Here is an example of a text:
Did you know that giraffes are the tallest animals in the world? Interestingly, giraffes have a spotted coat, which help it blend into their habitat.
What sub heading could we make? Look at what the information is telling you. It’s telling us about their appearance.
Now look at the word document called Week Week 5 Wedneday English ‘Creating Subheadings’
Try and make a subheading for each piece of text.
Topic: History:
Now that you know Tim Peake is an astronaut, today you will write a job description for an astronaut by answering these question:
- What is an astronaut?
- What jobs do astronauts do when they are in space?
- What are their responsibilities?
- What skills and experience do you need?
Maths:
Which is longer: one hour, one minute or one second?
If I finish a race first, am I faster or slower than everyone else?

Play Reading Robot- colours
English:
To organise information under different subheading
Yesterday we created our own subheading. Sub headings tell us what the information is about. It helps readers understand and find information.
If we had a subheading called ‘Where do dolphins live?’ Would we write about how they look? – No because it wouldn’t answer the questions.
Which one of these sentences could we use?
- Did you know that dolphins eat fish like cod?
- Interestingly, dolphins are mammals.
Which sentence answers the question in the subheading.
We are going to be organising facts under two sub headings about lions.
The first sub- heading is ‘What do lions look like?’ and the second sub-heading is ‘What do lions eat?’
You need to look at the sentences and see what sub-heading they answer.
Look at the ‘Week 5 English Thursday All about Lions’ word documents for the sentences.
Topic: History:
Tim Peake spent an eventful and busy six months in space. Today you will imagine that you are Tim on board the International Space Station writing a letter home, explaining what it is like in space, what have you seen so far and what you miss about home?
