Writing: The Life Cycle of a Frog Explanation Task Can you explain the process which a frog egg goes through until it becomes an adult frog? Use what you learnt from yesterday’s assignment. I would really like you to concentrate at getting in time connectives (first, last then, etc) and cause and effect connectives. Other things to consider: • Title • Picture or diagram • Introduction • New Paragraph for each stage in the frog’s life cycle • Present tense and third person (e. g. The frog life cycle begins with an egg. ) • You might want to give yourself a challenge by adding a glossary (think about words such as metamorphosis, albumen, etc) • If you can, why don’t you type your writing rather than writing it on paper- that way you can edit your work easier. If you are using Word, there is a an inbuilt thesaurus in the review section which will help you choose ambitious vocabulary.
