TASK 3 – RESEARCH FOR NON-CHRONOLOGICAL REPORT

Before we finished school , we were learning about the features of non-chronological reports and discussed that when the schools are closed I would like you all to work on creating your own report. In your Home Learning Pack you will find an example of a report (Crocodiles and Alligators) and a Non-Chronological Report Features Checklist.

Today I would like you to decide on a topic that you would like to base your report on – for example, the Rainforest, an animal of your choice, a country, a sport, a planet – it can be anything of interest to you.

Once you have decided on a topic you can start to gather some research and create a spider diagram as we have done in class. Remember each part of the diagram can be used for a sub-heading in your report.  This is all I would expect you to do before the holidays – after the holidays I will post more information about what to do next.

Here are some of the videos we watched in class to refresh your memory:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs7iGTA_Fcw
