LI – To read the Tempest

LI – To write a script for a TV news report

Task 1: Find out about the history-making SpaceX rocket which has just landed at the International Space Station –

making notes from the website as you read:

BBC Newsround – SpaceX docks to ISS: NASA astronauts land safely and make history:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/52526849

Task 2: Imagine Newsround have asked you to do a TV news bulletin for their show about the SpaceX

rocket landing. Write a news report script about the landing. To help when writing your news script, think

about including these points:

– Introduce yourself and explain what your news is, in a short summary sentence ‘Good evening, my

name is… Tonight’s main news is…’

– Stick to the key facts – making your news as clear as possible

– You may wish to include quotes from the astronauts which can be found in the article

– Give a closing statement to end your bulletin ‘I’m … and this has been tonight’s news. Goodnight.’

 

To get an idea of how Newsround currently present the news, watch the show here:

CBBC Newsround: Watch Newsround – https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/news/watch_newsround

 

As you are writing your script, make sure you practise reading it aloud. Ask a member of your family to

listen to you read – they may be able to help make suggestions for how you can edit/improve your report.

Once you have written your script, set up your ‘news area’ and perform it to a family member.

If possible, you may want to record your news report to send to us!
