Grade 5 · Writing · Lesson 19

Write a mini-research report with headings

A RESEARCH REPORT explains what you learned about a topic. Unlike a story, it is organized into SECTIONS, and each section has its own bold HEADING. Headings act as signposts so readers can find what they need without reading every word — and they help YOU keep your facts in the right place while you write.
