Bitesize Again

Y6 teachers in the Yewlands family of schools seem to agree that in the English SATs, pupils who make Level 5 are good at tackling the three mark questions on the Reading Paper. These questions generally ask for higher level thinking and skills such as deduction and inference. You normally have to make more than one point to earn the marks. This time when you click on Popeye to go to BBC KS2 Bitesize, make sure you continue to have had a good look into the Reading section. What tips can you pick up here about tackling the Reading paper? Spend the next twenty minutes back on Bitesize. If you are finished with Reading then go on to Spelling and Grammar.
