This discussion will explore what non-fiction means for students in KS2 (Key Stage 2) in the UK. We will discuss the types of non-fiction texts that students in KS2 are expected to read, the purpose and importance of non-fiction texts, and the different strategies that can be used to help students understand and engage with non-fiction texts. We will also consider how teachers can help students to develop their understanding of non-fiction and its importance.
