Can you create a whole sentence using alliteration?

Here is an example to help you...

E.g. My mother munched many mangoes.

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.
