Report writing -Report are compositions that give information.

You usually write a report for someone in authority, for example a teacher or a principal. We also write reports for the police if we witness an accident or a crime. Guidelines 1) 2) Write the tittle and date of your report at the top left hand corner of the paper. If you are writing a report for somebody (e.g. the school principal, a teacher) Write at the top whom the report is addressed to. 3) If you are writing a report a newspaper, include as many facts as possible. Write the day and the place when the incident happened. 4) Write in clear, precise language. If you are describing an event, write a summary of the events. Do not give lengthy explanations. 5) 6) Remember to allocate one idea for one paragraph. At the end of the report, write your name in block capitals and sign the report.
