Report writing (information text) Revison

This is a bit of revision for your report writing.

• For a table with the main features of report writing click here.

Last year David showed us some Australian native animals at the Australian Museum. Do you know their names?
Do they belong to the same species? What's their main characteristic?

• Go to Time4English Lower Intermediate 5M and read the Wombat story (you can listen to it, too). Is this text a report? Not really, because the wombat is talking to us (I, my pouch, my baby...) What changes do you have to make to the language, so that it is an information report?
  Write a report about wombats based on that story.
  
  You can add more information by searching the net.

• For a worksheet that will help you understand the structure and lingusitic features of a report, go to Report Writing: Analysis of Animal Reports

• And for a bit of relaxation, why don't you stop for a cuppa and listen to Sally's class Harmony Day Tea?
