Research

Dear Boys,

On Thursday, you will be writing a short text about your favourite underwater creature. I need you to do some research on it. You may also prepare a picture of the creature as a reference as you need to draw and colour it on the worksheet which will be given to you on Thursday.

Do consider the following guiding questions when doing your research:

1.        What is your favourite underwater creature?
*Choose only 1!

2.       How does it look like? 
*You are to describe its external features.

3.       What does it eat?

4.       What can it do?

5.       What is special about it?

6.       Why is it your favourite underwater creature?


Have fun doing your research!

Love,
Mrs Tan
