Writing Information Reports

Literacy Homework: 29th November 2013

At our workshop last week, we had the chance to see a Bearded Dragon up close.

In Literacy, we have spent a lot of time learning about writing an effective report.

Can you write a paragraph about what the Bearded Dragon looks like? Remember to include all the features needed in an interesting report. You may develop your report with more paragraphs of information if you can.

On Friday we were very lucky to have the Tropical Rainforest group from Hounslow Urban Farm visit us.
We met lots of interesting animals from the rainforest. What did you find out?

This week has been Victorian week in Big Ben class and we have been looking at Victorian transport and comparing it to today. What have you found out about Victorian transport?

Mystery letter

I have found a mysterious letter in the classroom this morning before school. What do you think the letter is about? Who may have written it?

Dear xxxxxx,


How are you feeling? I am really excited about going on this amazing adventure, but I am feeling a little scared too.
I don't know what it's going to be like. Will it be hot there or icy cold? Will we meet anybody on our journey? Will we find the treasure?
Write back as soon as you can with details of when we leave England.

Love from  xxxxxxx
