=writing reports of various kinds=

A report is a name we can give to many different kinds of writing. We might mean a school report - by a teacher on a student's learning progress. Or it could be a company report - which tells the shareholders how the company has fared in the past year. Maybe we are thinking of a newspaper report - an account of a recent event. A student might be asked to write a report on plant cells or volcanoes or the class trip to the art gallery.

We might say all reports are factual accounts of something particular, and so that they are all similar. But each kind is different too, and each has its own features and conventions.
