Tell a partner all about the new animal you
have discovered whilst you were lost in the
rainforest!

After several days of being lost in the rainforest, you finally manage to locate your research team. Excitedly, you tell them about the new species you have been observing and making notes on. They want to know all about it, and ask you to writea full report about the animal using your notes.
Before you write your report, you need to organise your notes into a plan...

This report is separated into paragraphs, which each give information about a
particular aspect of the animal. The topic of each paragraph is made
clear by the sub-headings.
Thinking about the information you have
about your animal, what sub-headings could you
use in your report?
Think, pair, then share your ideas.
