What do you think a report is, who would you write it for/to, what tone do you need to use? Do you need subheadings?

Basic information

REPORT is usually written for a superior (e.g. a teacher) or a peer group (e.g. members of an English club). Candidates are expected to give some factual information and make suggestions or recommendations. A report should be clearly organised and may include headings. 

A report is either slightly formal or just formal. 

The differences in article and report

Style	Formal and objective	Semi-formal or informal
Structure	Clear sections with headings	Free-flowing, sometimes with subheadings
Language	Impersonal, factual	Personal, persuasive
