Reports

Last week the children learnt about how to write a report using the correct structure and language. Some of the guidelines for writing a good report are:
1. Organise the report into sections or paragraphs, with subheadings.
2. Write an introduction and possibly a finishing statement.
3. Use facts not opinions and avoid saying "I" or "We."
4. Use subject specific vocabulary
5. Add a photograph or drawing, with labels if needed.
6. Write in the present tense.

Last week the children had to write an animal report on any animal they liked. The next task is to write a report on a different topic.
