This week, we are going to start looking at Skara Brae, a Neolithic village found on Mainland Orkney. This week is all about finding out information. Next week, we will be using that to help us start writing up our research so make sure you save all your answers as they will come in useful.
First, read the information on Skara Brae - you could always make notes or highlight anything you think is particularly important. Then, look at the reading comprehension activity. Year 4, choose 1,2 or 3 stars depending how confident a reader you are. Year 5, chose 2 or 3 stars. The answers are at the end so check them off with an adult then you could always upload them onto purple mash to show me how well you have done.
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
