Year 6 Non-chronological reports on World War Two

We have really enjoyed writing our first full piece on our new topic World War Two .  We spent several lessons researching the key aspects of The Blitz – the period London was heavily bombed during the war – in particular focusing on: the actual bombing raids, air raid shelters and evacuees.  We spent time reading information, making notes and then developing them into our own informative paragraphs – structured with different subheadings.  The key skills were using topic based vocabulary, varying our sentence openers, writing in the third person and past tense.

Get children’s report writing in order, even if it’s not in chronological order, with these lesson ideas, activities and other resources for primary English…

Aidan Severs

It might surprise you to find that the words ‘non-chronological report’ do not feature in the national curriculum. Yet, the writing of non-chronological reports has become a staple of primary teaching.

While some schools have moved away from a genre-based way of teaching writing , you’re still very likely to find yourself being required to teach children how to produce this kind of writing.

What is a non-chronological report?

What are the features of a non-chronological report, non-chronological reports in ks1, non-chronological reports in ks2, progression through year groups, more non-chronological report resources.

The purpose of a non-chronological report is to inform the reader. A non-chronological report can be about anything that doesn’t require a chronological, time-ordered account of something. This might include:

  • an introduction to a hobby
  • an overview of a capital city
  • a piece about a child’s family

The following examples would not suit a non-chronological report:

  • Recount of a visit
  • Set of instructions
  • Write-up of a science experiment
  • Description of a historical sequence

Pupils could choose to write a non-chronological report about anything they are knowledgeable about and interested in.

Linking writing to previous learning

To remove the need to recall facts, you can also write non-chronological reports about fictional topics, for example, mythological beasts that children have created.

However, in primary schools it’s often the case that you’ll link the piece of writing to some current (or previous) learning in another curriculum area. This has the following benefits:

  • children may be very knowledgeable about the subject if you’ve taught them well
  • links to other subjects give the writing some further purpose
  • children may be enthusiastic about writing about that particular topic

There are drawbacks too, however. Children may get bogged down in trying to accurately represent their learning in other subjects to the point that demonstrating their writing ability takes a back seat.

“The words ‘non-chronological report’ do not feature in the national curriculum”

You must also exercise caution when reviewing and assessing writing. Focus on the English knowledge and skills children have demonstrated, rather than the subject knowledge they’ve demonstrated in the content.

Because non-chronological reports do not follow a sequential order but instead focus on presenting facts and details in a structured manner, it can be useful to teach pupils how to write them as a way of helping them structure their thoughts and understanding.

The features of a non-chronological report will depend on the age group that you teach. However the following is an overview of the full range of features that you might expect a child to include in a non-chronological report by the time they reach Year 6:

A clear and engaging title that reflects the subject of the report.

Introduction

An introductory paragraph or section that provides a brief overview of the topic, without getting into the details that will feature in the rest of the report.

Organise information into paragraphs based on the different aspects of the subject being presented.

Subheadings

Use subheadings to signal paragraphs or sections comprising more than one paragraph. This makes it easy for the reader to navigate through different aspects of the subject.

Facts and information

The report will focus on the presentation of factual information and details about the subject.

Illustrations and visuals

Non-chronological reports, such as the ones you see in children’s non-fiction books, usually include images, diagrams, and other visuals related to the content. The purpose of these is to aid the reader in understanding the text.

Presentational features

Use bullet points, numbering, labels and captions to present information with clarity and organise information clearly.

Technical vocabulary

The use of specialised vocabulary and terminology relevant to the subject.

Concluding statement

This is a concluding section that summarises key points and reiterates how the information you’ve presented is relevant to the overall purpose of the piece of writing.

As previously mentioned, the national curriculum doesn’t specifically require pupils in KS1 to write non-chronological reports. However, it does require you to teach pupils in Year 2 to ‘develop positive attitudes towards and stamina for writing by writing for different purposes’.

The purpose, as we have discovered already, of a non-chronological report is to inform the reader, so this should be the focus of any non-chronological report writing in Year 2. Beyond this, any piece of writing in Year 2 should be a means of practising and showcasing other writing skills, as set out in the national curriculum under the headings of spelling, handwriting, composition, vocabulary, grammar and punctuation.

Year 1 children need not write non-chronological reports at all.

In KS2, the national curriculum hints at what might be useful for pupils who are writing a non-chronological report. It says that pupils in Years 3 and 4 should be taught to draft and write by ‘organising paragraphs around a theme’ and ‘in non-narrative material, using simple organisational devices [for example, headings and sub-headings]’.

The non-statutory guidance given in the national curriculum says:

‘Pupils should continue to have opportunities to write for a range of real purposes and audiences as part of their work across the curriculum. These purposes and audiences should underpin the decisions about the form the writing should take, such as a narrative, an explanation or a description.’

In the guidance for teachers of Years 5 and 6 it states:

‘Pupils should be taught to plan their writing by identifying the audience for and purpose of the writing, selecting the appropriate form and using other similar writing as models for their own’.

It also says that pupils should be taught to plan and draft their writing ‘using further organisational and presentational devices to structure text and to guide the reader [for example, headings, bullet points, underlining]’.

Year 2 (KS1)

In Year 2, children can create simple non-chronological reports about topics they are familiar with, such as pets or favourite toys. Their focus can be on basic sections.

Provide scaffolds such as writing frames to help children organise information. You might also want to suggest a title and provide children with lots of time to orally rehearse what they want to write before they commit it to paper.

Year 3 (KS2)

Children in Year 3 can start exploring more diverse topics, potentially those linked to prior learning, and learn to organise and structure their reports with clear headings and subheadings.

Again, you may want to scaffold this, perhaps using guided planning and structure strips . Provide practice tasks focusing on grouping information around a theme.

Where possible, give children a real-life reason and purpose to write, for example, to teach their parents about what they have been learning about.

Year 4 (KS2)

Before moving on to adding other features to their non-chronological reports, students in Year 4 can spend time learning how to craft a more comprehensive introduction and conclusion.

Provide lots of live modelling and examples of sentence structures for children to choose from, avoiding simple sentences such as ‘This non-chronological report is about…’.

You can also show children how to ensure that they are incorporating technical vocabulary in their writing. The word lists in Appendix 1 of the English national curriculum are a good guide as to what is age-appropriate concerning spellings.

Year 5 (KS2)

In Year 5, you can use assessment of prior knowledge to move children on. Begin to look at additional organisational features such as bullet points, numbering, labels and captions.

When using these new features, encourage pupils to make selections based on audience and purpose. Model how to make these decisions so that the information is presented as clearly as possible.

Year 6 (KS2)

By Year 6, the ideal is for children to be writing non-chronological reports with a high degree of independence, demonstrating all their prior learning accurately.

Your school’s individual English curriculum will likely have new grammar and punctuation content that children need to practise too. Colons, semi-colons, conjunctions and so on all have their place in non-chronological reports.

Remember that the main purpose of a non-chronological report is to inform the reader of something – this should always be the focus.

Non-chronological reports provide children with opportunities to practise and demonstrate many of the English writing skills you’ve taught them.

Show children how to select appropriate skills and techniques, all to communicate with clarity to their intended reader: this should be the case regardless of year group.

This is fabulous for my year 6 class!

This is great thanks - I adapted it for a SPAG lesson for my GD children and changed the tense. They had to find the mistakes. Lovely resource thank you
