My Easter recount with muscles, guts and skin.

Here is my Easter recount after I worked with my teacher to make sure it was good enough for publishing. This is what my teacher means when she says my story needs to have muscles, guts and skin. I want you to  notice that I used similes, adjectives, short,sharp sentences and onomatopoeia.

Making our skeleton

KIa ora After we made our writing skeleton on the planning sheet, we had to highlight all the notes and then copy and paste them below in a list one after the other. So, our story skeleton looks like it can stand up now but it is still just bones. Our teacher says writers call this an outline. We read our outlines out loud to each other and they sound good.Here is mine below.

Making a recount skeleton

Kia ora This week we have been learning how to make plans 

for a recount so that it has an organised 

structure.We had to fill in notes in the right places on this 

form. We didn't have to use whole sentences, just the 

important ideas. Then we had to read the notes back to 

each 

other and they sounded almost like a whole 

story.Our teacher said it was like we had made a skeleton 

for 

our story.Later we get to add the muscles,guts and 

skin and then we will be finished!
