Reading Comprehension

LI: Retrieve information from a non-fiction text

Last week in our TEAMS lesson we had a look at Stone Age Cave Art. Today’s non-fiction text will teach you even more about the ‘Stone Age Artist’.

Read this text and then very carefully look for the answers to the questions.

There are 3 levels of difficulty so choose the one that is right for you. The answers are included too, so that your parents or teachers can help you check your answers.

English

LI: Use engaging adverbs

Adverbs can be used at the start of a sentence to make the information engage the reader. In ‘The Truth about Trolls’, Professor Folklore has used 'Interestingly', 'Surprisingly' and 'Amazingly' to start some of his sentences. In this task, you will write your own sentences that begin with these adverbs to engage your reader.
