Today it was the last of the English SATs - the Reading Comprehension paper.
Today the children had to read a series of letters and notes to a boy who decided to live in his tree house. This was really funny and the children said how much they'd enjoyed reading them. This might be a really good idea for a letter writing project next year!
They also had to read an insert about an environmentally friendly house called the Earthship. Again, this was interesting and the children enjoyed it.
I felt that the questions were fair and do-able. They did, I felt, involve more writing than usual. There weren't many tick the box, join up the statements or write in numbers questions. Most of the questions needed a short phrase or sentence to answer.
Any thoughts?
