In Year 1 English we are focusing on non-fiction texts and we wrote our own recounts of a trip to Legoland, Manchester.
The children learnt that a recount needed to be in the past tense, written in the order that events happened and time connectives are used, e.g. first, then, finally, meanwhile.
The children were able to write about the workshop that they took part in called ‘Spinning Tops’ where they found out about gears and how they work.
It was a great day that led to the children achieving some fantastic work.
