Information Report



Image result for king penguins






King penguins are 3 feet tall  and they’re the second tallest penguin alive. Did you know that king penguins swim underwater for about 20 minutes?

King penguins have orange spots (near the neck and near their ears). Males are slightly larger than females. King penguins kind of looks similar to a emperor penguin but an emperor penguin has a different size. The European explorers discovered king penguins thought that king penguins were the tallest specie alive. They are the brightest specie out of all penguins.

King penguins are carnivores. They love to eat (small fish, lantern fish and squid). Here's a shocking fact that humans don’t know (the mother gets the food while the dad looks after the chick). The mother uses their beak as a spoon to feed their chicks. They eat 13 pounds per day.

King penguins are warm blooded. They live in subanatracia on the northside of antarctica. In their island it has snow, water and it is really cold. Did you know that antarctica has 10 islands? Well I never knew that fact.


Did you know that king penguins are scared of a killer whale, leopard seal, skaus and an giant petrel. They travel in groups of 5 to 20 individuals.

I have finally came to my conclusion. I have written what their is diet, appearance, habitat and behaviour. Did you know that their scientific name is called  Aptenodytes patagonicus.

This week in writing we have being practising our information report writing skills. I have chosen to write about a king penguin. To do this practise whole information we used a text box that helped us write our information. We have a structure that we made up as a class called tips (title, introduction, paragraph and summary). I learnt that king penguins are 3 feet tall.
