1. Find out and learn one of the factual report text.

A comet is a relatively small solar system body that orbits the Sun. When close
enough to the Sun they display a visible coma (a fuzzy outline or atmosphere due to solar
radiation) and sometimes a tail.
The coma is created as the comet gets closer to the Sun, causing water, carbon
dioxide and other compounds to sublime (quickly changing from solid to gas) from its
surface.
Comets are made of ice, dust and small rocky particles.
The name comet comes from the Greek word meaning ‘hair of the head’, it came from
the Greek philosopher Aristotle who observed comets as ‘stars with hair’.
Short term comets (also known as periodic comets) have orbital periods of less
than 200 years while long term comets have orbital periods of over 200 years.

4.Language feature

•Use of relating verbs to describe features, e.g This process is called nuclear fusion.

•Use of technical terms, eg Sun’s mass is made up of hydrogen

•Use of paragraphs with topic sentences to organise bundles of information; repeated naming of
the topic as the beginning focus of the clause.
