Information Report Writing

Information Report Writing

Writing
Formulating Questions:  able to write questions to gain relevant information.

Information Report:
WALT:
We are learning to write factual report
I know I am successful when…
  • I have included a general classification (A volcanic eruption is…)
  • I have included a description often including
    1. qualities
    2. parts and their function
    3. habits and behaviour or uses
  • I have written in the present tense


It is usually written

  • in the present tense (unless the report concerns things from the past),
  • in non-chronological order,
  • focusing on generic participants (groups of things),
  • using "being" and "having" clauses.

Watch this space for some of our Reports on Animals and also our reports on Natural Disasters.
