English

I would love to hear all about your Christmas Day and what you got up to.

In English we call this "writing a recount" A recount is where we are re-telling something that has happened in the past and it is really important that we tell it in the order that it happened.

Have a listen to Michael Rosen telling us more about how to write a recount and then use the sheets attached below to help you plan and write one of your own all about your Christmas Day. If you don’t celebrate Christmas, you could write about another day in the Christmas holidays.

Make sure you use sequencing language such as: First, Next, Then, After, Before, During, Whilst, When.

11:45 – 12:00
