Develop understanding of how recounts are structured through the resources provided, which can be used instantly by pupils in Year 1 and Year 2. These resources can be used to support teaching and learning during an English unit focusing on recount writing, where pupils can learn the features needed for this style of writing, helping them to identify the features in model texts that are explored.
The recount poster can be used to teach how these text types are structured and the grammar, vocabulary and punctuation typically used in diary writing.
A planning sheet is also included to support pupils when noting and organising their ideas before writing.
