INTRODUCTION:-

• A report is a written account of something that one has observed, heard, done, or investigated. It is a
systematic and well organised presentation of facts and findings of an event that has already taken
place somewhere.

• Reports are used as a form of written assessment to find out what you have learned from your
reading, research or experience and to give you experience of an important skill that is widely used in
the work place.

• Generally, two types of reports are asked in the exam, namely, newspaper report or a magazine report.

• Newspaper report is the one which is published in a newspaper and magazine report is generally
written for a school magazine.
FORMAT OF A MAGAZINE WRITING:-
• Heading– A descriptive title which is expressive of the contents of the report.

• By line– Name of the person writing the report. It is generally given in the question. Remember, you are
not supposed to mention your personal details in your answer.

• Opening paragraph (introduction) – It may include the ‘5 Ws’ namely, WHAT, WHY, WHEN and WHERE
along with WHO was invited as the chief guest.

• Account of the event in detail– The proper sequence of events that occurred along with their
description. It is the main paragraph and can be split into two short paragraphs if required.

• Conclusion- This will include the description of how the event ended. It may include quote excerpts from
the Chief Guest’s speech or how did the event wind up.
FORMAT OF NEWSPAPER REPORT:-
• Headline- A descriptive title which is expressive of the contents of the report.

• By line- Name of the person writing the report along with the designation. It is generally given in the question.
Remember, you are not supposed to mention your personal details in your answer.

• Place and date of reporting- It is generally not mentioned in a magazine report separately, but here, it is.

• Opening paragraph- It includes expansion of the headline. It needs to be short as it is a general overview of the report.

• Account of the event in detail– It is generally written in two parts: First, complete account of what happened in it’s
chronological sequence (preferably) and second, the witness remarks.

• Concluding paragraph- This will include the action that has been taken so far or that will be taken. It is the last
paragraph.
TIPS FOR WRITING REPORT:-
Plan before you pen. Just make a list of all your important points on the rough sheet (last sheet of your
answer booklet) so that you do not forget relevant points while writing. This also helps you in
maintaining a sequence, which is very important.

 Presentation is very important.

 Make sure you double check for grammatical accuracy and spellings. They carry marks.
 Leave adequate number of lines between paragraphs to make it look clean.
 Underlining the main points is very important. But it is advised to do it after finishing your exam.
Use a pencil and scale for underlining.
 Make small sentences. It restricts the scope of grammatical inaccuracies.
SUGGESTED VALUE POINTS:-
A Report should answer the questions:

 What – name of event and occasion,

 by whom it is conducted.
 Where?
 When -date and time Activities (Teaching & Social Work) held.
 A comment on the quality of the activities organized
