We have been learning how to write a recount.
We learned this so that we will know what to do in the recount test (easTTle Writing).
We started on a doc with the date and the term on it. There was also a space to put your name. We had 5 minutes to plan it out then 45 minutes to write. We had to write about something we were proud of. I wrote about my experience doing orienteering in Palmerston North with some of my friends.
I enjoyed writing and looking back at what I had done that day.
I found it challenging to do it in 45 minutes because I had so much to write about. My next step is looking at my recount and seeing how to make it better. If I did this activity again I would try and write quicker and add more punctuation.
Have you written a recount before?
