Report Writing

 For the past few days I was learning to know when to use simple, compound and complex sentences. It was easy to use simple sentences and complex sentences.  It was tricky to use complex sentences because I couldn't think how to fit them in my writing. 

We had to choose a New Zealand native creature to write about - it could be extinct too. I worked with Camille (my friend) because she was also doing the Tuatara as well. I enjoyed writing and learning about the Tuatara.I  found it tricky to use a complex sentence. Next time I would change the native animal I wrote about so I could learn more interesting facts about New Zealand's native animals. Here is my report writing!

Tuatara

The Tuatara belongs to Reptiles, Genus Sphenodon.

The Tuatara has greenish brown and grey skin. It has a spiny crest along it's backs and measures up to 80cm.

Tuataras eat insects, beetles, lizards, birds, bird eggs, weta's worms, millipedes, spiders and sometimes they even eat their own babies!

Tuataras live in New Zealand. They are found on islands off the northern east coast of the North Island.

Tuataras live up to 100 years!
