The Ultimate Information Report Scaffold

This information report resource contains everything your students will need to write a well-structured text about cars. In the download, you will find:

  1. Cars Fact File – This provides students with some basic information about cars that they can use as a starting point for their information report.
  2. Dot Points to Sentences Worksheet – Using this worksheet, students can practise the important skill of turning the dot point notes from the fact file into complete sentences. Students should be encouraged to make these sentences more sophisticated by adding subject-specific vocabulary and descriptive words such as adjectives and adverbs.
  3. Report Writing Scaffold – By providing subheadings with explanations, this worksheet will support and guide your students as they write their information report about cars by building on the sentences they have written on the previous worksheet.
