Writing in Room 2

This week in Room 2 we have been learning about writing a recount. A recount is something that happened in the past. When we talk about the past we mean that it is when something has already happened. In a recount there are people who are important to the story and there might be animals too. We are carefully planning stories that we are going to write next week. Our stories are going to be about something special that happened in the holidays.
