English: Writing - Zoom Input at 9:30am

It is time to read more of our class reader ‘Holes’ - what will happen next?

 

 

Today we will be writing the next section for our non-chronological reports about Yellow Spotted Lizards. We will be writing the appearance section.

 What is your subheading for each section going to be?

This is the section of your fact sheet from yesterday that will be really helpful today.

 

Task: Write the appearance section of your report. Remember to make it interesting for the reader. What varied punctuation can you use?

 

Here is an example to help you:

Atrocious Appearance

These vile and vicious creatures can be easily identified by their yellow spots – exactly eleven along their long green body. Although, you won’t have enough time to count them to be sure! Yellow spotted lizards have razor sharp black teeth and a milky-white tongue. Measuring at 8-10 inches long, these creatures have slender bodies and tough skin. Interestingly, they have flat, snake-like heads which allow them to squeeze into even the tiniest of holes.
