A PPT to use with Y2 to help them learn about the learning journey involved inwriting an explanation. When this ppt was used the children had already looked at non fiction books about the life cycle of a sunflower and had a go at making a class glossary regarding words like germinates, radicle, f More…lower head etc. They were ready to find out info about the life cycle and to learn about the time connectives they could use to write their explanations. Our topic was Growing Plants; Living things

Excellent on many levels. Great to push my Year 2 girl into thinking analytically. We cut up the pictures and shuffled them up and she keeps coming back to it.

explanations. This looks great. Just what I need. All I'll need to do now is add in some causal connectives, which is my focus. Thanks
