Recount Writing: My Holiday

The first day of school the children began with sharing about their summer holidays. The children were enthusiastic to talk about the past 6 weeks, however we magnified one event in our holiday that we would then write a recount about.
The format for a recount is shown above. When the children shared with a partner, they were encouraged to talk about their event using this format. The children focused on answering the who, what, where, when and why. The children had success in writing their orientation. After these have been edited, some examples will be published on the blog for you to view.
