Structure of an information report.

Class 5-8 was taught the structure of an information report today.

Before I explain the structure, let me pose this question first, "What is an information report?"
Basically, it is a text that presents information about a topic. It can be on any topic, usually on living or non-living things.

The structure of an information report is as follows.
1) The title.
2) An opening statement in the first paragraph.
3) Subheadings.
4) Topic sentence.
5)A series of paragraphs/sections (mainly about comparing and contrasting)
6) Conclusion

It would be good if there are pictures, diagrams or illustrations that can be used to explain the text better.

After which, Class 5-8 did an "information brochure"; comparing two biomes, the tundra and grasslands. As there is not enough time, they were tasked to complete the brochure as homework.

I will try to post the pictures of their product as soon as possible once I received them.
