EXAMPLE OF RECOUNT TEXT
Dear Grandpa and Grandma,

Yesterday at my school we had an International Day. We had

performances, food stalls, displays, raffle ticket draw, and
some of us were dressed in costumes.
We started our day off with performances but the one I liked
best was the one from fourth grade. We played games. The
performance I was in was Labamba.
Straight after our performances we had our lunch. There
were food stalls. They came from Australia, Asia, Arab, and
Greece.
There was also a Trash and Treasure stall where they sold
toys. The school got these things by asking the children to
bring them in.
Although I didn’t win anything, International Day was still fun
