| |
|Possible use of a question in the title: Dogs- a perfect pet or wild wolf? |
|2. An opening statement: |
| |
|A general statement at the start (e.g. Snakes are reptiles), followed by more specific information in sections (e.g. appearance, diet, habitat). |
|Explain clearly what you are writing about: Dogs are a popular pet; but Is the dog man’s best friend or a danger in the home? |
|3. Use subheadings and paragraphs to organise the report: |
| |
|Information texts are held together by subheadings and/or clear topic sentences at the start of paragraphs that signal the subject. |
|The text in each paragraph must relate to each sub-heading. |
|Underline headings and sub headings or use bold type to make them stand out. |
|Clear, factual style which does not include the writer’s opinions or feelings |
|4.Research and select facts from a range of sources to interest the reader |
| |
|Sentences tend to be short, for clarity and conciseness. These often start with a noun, followed by a verb to create a factual tone: Elephants |
|live…, Dogs eat… |
|Use of both passive and active voice to avoid repeating ‘it’ or ‘they’ too often |
| |
|Use bullet points to organise and present information |
|Use tables, pictures, diagrams to add more information |

|Heading saying what the report is about: |
|Castles (heading) |
|Paragraph 1 with sub-heading – saying what the paragraph is about |
| |
|Purpose |
|(sub heading) (text relating to sub-heading) |
|The Normans brought castle building to England following their invasion in 1066. A castle was used for many purposes. It might be a home for a |
|medieval lord. A rich lord might own many castles and move from one to another. Often soldiers would be based there to protect the countryside, |
|though sometimes the lord didn’t trust the locals and the castle was intended to scare them. It might also be used as a courthouse, a prison or even |
|as a storehouse for food. |
|Paragraph 2 with sub-heading – saying what the paragraph is about |
|Materials |
|(sub heading) (text relating to sub-heading) |
|Very early castles were built of wood and earth, particularly if they had to be put up quickly. Later on they were always built of stone, in blocks |
|that were so heavy and carefully put together that a large number survive even today. |
|Paragraph 3 with sub-heading – saying what the paragraph is about |
|Design |
|(sub heading) (text relating to sub-heading) |
|Most medieval castles were divided into two parts, the motte, or keep, and the bailey. The keep was always the strongest part. It was often where the|
|lord lived himself but it was also designed so that even if invaders got into the rest of the castle the keep could still be defended. Often it was |
|on a hill made by piling up heaps of earth. The bailey was also defended by towers and strong walls but it contained stables, store rooms and |
|sleeping rooms for the soldiers. |
|Paragraph 4 with sub-heading – saying what the paragraph is about |
|Defending the castle |
|(sub heading) (text relating to sub-heading) |
|Strong walls made it difficult for strangers to get in but if the castle was attacked then strong gates would be shut. Many castles had moats, (big |
|ditches full of water), all round the walls. The defenders would fire arrows onto the attackers and drop rocks on their heads. |
