Reflection 2

compare and contrast

Our teacher told us how to write the compare and contrast between two things to know what is the best between the two.

The first paragraph is about the two things and what is the relationship between them (general idea). This has to be in 50 words.

The second paragraph talks about the similarities between the two things (at least 3 similarities) and it will be better if you add some examples and you can put it in 50 words.

The third paragraph talks about the differences (at least 3 differences) between the two things and it will show the details that you want to know and you can put it in 50 words.

In the conclusion you have to show what is more, the similarities or the differences and talk about your opinion and what do you prefer. This can be in 50 words.

Reflection 1

Describing graphs


There are three main paragraphs, and they consist of an introduction with 25 words, and the body, around 100 words, and finally the conclusion, about 25 words.

We began with a pie graph, and then we continued with bar graphs, tables & line graphs.

From the line graph about the rush hour and the busy times on the London Underground, I got some examples and useful vocabulary from the web site (HD1 common year).


It’s not all about explaining and describing the graphs, but also about comparing the major things.
