TASK 3: Non Chronological Report – please continue to complete your report, if you have finished your report you can pick a Literacy activity from the grid in your Home Learning Pack.
You should have completed your spider diagram and can now begin to write your report. In your Home Learning Pack you will find an example of a report (Crocodiles and Alligators) and a Non-Chronological Report Features Checklist. You can write your report in a similar format to the example or you can create your own: you can write it, type it, use Powerpoint, it is up to you! Also remember to check the Features Checklist to ensure you have included everything.
You can check back on last Friday’s post for further information and videos. If you have finished your report you can send it to me, I would love to read them 🙂
