This week for writing I made a information report about penguins. First we had to make a copy of a google document for note taking before we did the writing about the penguins to help us write our information report. The structure of a information report is TIPS Tittle, introduction, paragraphs and summary. In a information report there has to have technical words and must be in present tense. In my information report about penguins was to talk about the appearance (what they look like), diet (what they eat and the habbitat (where they live) of the penguins. I have learnt that penguins are extraordinary creatures.
