Reading process: Non-fiction texts
In this lesson, we'll be continuing our reading of unseen non-fiction texts; this week exploring Touching the Void written by the British climber Joe Simpson about his experiences in the Peruvian Andes. As usual with our first reading, we will be tracking the events and responding to a series of prompts to develop our understanding of the text.
