In Talk 4 Writing we learnt about the structure of report writing.

First, we demonstrated what we already knew about report writing by writing a report on the animal of our choice. We used our model text to look at the structure of an information report and how sub-headings help the reader to quickly find information. We came up with “hooks” for our introduction, using a question and an interesting fact to engage the reader. We also learnt about note-taking when researching a subject for a report.

We practised our notetaking skills when writing our reports about cities in Australia and animals all around the world. We have learnt about editing to improve our spelling, punctuation vocabulary and report writing structure. We also did some actions in Talk 4 Writing to help us memorise our model text about parents.

It was very fun doing it in real life and making up actions.
