You are going to practice the skill of recount writing by writing about the best trip you have ever been on. We discussed some great ideas in class, and looked at an example about ‘The Hidden Swimming Hole’.

Remember to:

-Hook your reader in

-Set the scene with 5Ws

-Write events in order

-Use time connectives

-Use WOW words

-Use paragraphs

-Wrap your recount up with a comment about how you feel

Have you been to a nice hot place in Aussie? 

In September 2023 I went to Australia and it was so much fun. I went with my family.  When we took off, on a plane, it was windy and it was sketchy, as I thought it was going to crash but it did not. We landed in Brisbane Airport and the sun was so nice and I loved it.

We went to the hotel and I fell asleep in the shuttle because I was so tired.

The next day, we went to a zoo and it was hot and watching the crocodiles being fed and doing tricks was amazing. The snakes were so cool and we saw  a big yellow snake. It was long and it could eat a man but I was not scared of anything.  

After we got to swim in the pools and. It was so tough as it was freezing. But I was not cold and after that we got ice cream and it was sooooo good and I have never had better ice cream.

So we went home from Brisbane Airport and the flight was so short but it felt so long. The flight was so boring but the take off was better than the  Wellington Airport. But the food was good and so were the drinks. When we landed. Wellington Airport it was raining and it was cold but Air New Zealand landed.

You should go and I want to go again
