Explanation Writing

For writing at the moment we are learning how to write explanations.
An explanation, explains how something is done or works.

Here is an example of an outstanding explanation about how cows make milk, by Ollie.
The words that are underlined are techinical words. You underline them when you are writing an explanation and then they are linked to the glossary.


How do cows turn grass into milk?
 First the cow eats 70kgs of grass a day.  The grass goes into the first two stomachs.
Then it is burped up as cud. The cud is chewed for one minute.
Next the cud  goes through the last two stomachs.  Now it becomes nutrients. It goes into the cows
bloodstream. 
It goes into the udders and becomes milk.

This is how cows make milk.

 

 

Well done Ollie. That was a great example of an explanation!
