A research report shares detailed information about a specific topic. To create one, a writer gathers facts from books, articles, and websites. They organize this information into sections, such as an introduction, body, and conclusion. For example, if someone writes a report about dolphins, they might include facts about where dolphins live, what they eat, and how they communicate. After collecting the information, the writer makes sure to explain it clearly so that readers can understand it easily. Research reports help people learn more about subjects they are curious about!
