Deconstructing a Report

We have been focusing on report writing for language. Today we were learning to deconstruct a report. Deconstructing an already written report is a really easy thing to do and you can learn heaps, its like when biology students cut up frogs. We were all given a newspaper article and a ‘report criteria’ we were then given the task of picking out the specific vocabulary (to this report) we then had to find all the factual information and the title. After this we marked this report against the report criteria. We all learnt heaps and it was amazing how much we found out about the report.
