Giant Panda Research | Writing

LI: to use our smart searching skills to find information about the giant panda.


Our focus for this challenge was based on writing TEEL paragraphs about giant pandas. After using our smart searching skills, we used the TEEL structure in order to write paragraphs. TEEL is the acronym for: topic sentence, elaborate, evidence and link sentence. 

First we researched about giant pandas and found information about them. After this, we made bullet point notes including the main points of our research. These notes helped create sentences with all the main ideas and made it understandable. 

After making the notes we started writing our TEEL paragraphs. TEEL paragraphs help us to expand our knowledge/ideas and formulate our thinking into informational pieces of text. 

We found this activity very enjoyable because we collaborated together to find out shocking information about pandas. One thing I learnt from this activity was that giant pandas are very close to extinction.

    Your research about the Giant Panda was very informative and very interesting. I was really surprised to learn how tiny the newborns were and it is sad that sometimes only the strongest infant is cared for and the weaker ones don't survive. I was also amazed at the amount of food a Giant Panda can consume per day. It was shocking to read of the many threats facing the Giant Panda and that they are close to extinction.
    Keep up the great work.

  2. Kia Ora Sulla I can’t believe that you are the head girl of the school. I might be the head girl too when I go to LS2. I am excited because my baby brother is going to come out. My mum has watch a panda video in Facebook. The pandas climbed and ate bamboo. Why are there lots of TEELS in your writing. From: Rahzan Room 4
