WALT Make recounts about what we did at the holidays.
Here is my one
First Day Of Camp!
I woke up at 6:30 I was ready for camp, I went to do all the stuff I needed to do. I got my bag ready I also got my sleeping bag and my pillow. I got into the car and ready to go to Ken’s house.
I got out of the car and walked and opened the door and said ‘bye’ to my mum. I went inside then I place my bag on the chair. I went looking for Ken, I saw him then went to the shower. I was waiting for a few minutes then Ken’s dad came, he turned on the TV for me to watch. After when Ken was all packed up we went in the car.
When Ken and I arrived we waited. Then someone was handing name tags out. One of them was Ester, when I got my name tag I saw number 1 on my one. On the bottom have my dad’s phone number and my house street and number. Ken’s number was 26. When I was talking with Ken I saw Jasper. After a few minutes the bus bag holder opened. I gave all my stuff to the person that was putting it on the bus. Hop on the bus. I managed to get first seat with Ken. Me and Ken were waiting for Rheanne to hop on the bus. After when lots of people were on the bus the bus driver started the car.
After a few minutes we arrived we saw a lot of leaders waiting for us. Most of them waved at us then some hoped on. One of them said, ‘follow Josh with the funny hat’ we all followed him. Next he told us to sit down and wait for more people. After when there was a lot of people he started to talk, he was talking about when leaders ‘macaroni cheese!’ Children's have to say ‘everybody freeze!’ Then they have to be silent. Josh was talking about camp, then he send the boys to camp dad also he send the girls to camp mom. The boys cabin leaders followed then wait for camp dad to say which cabin are they. First he called cabin one, when he was going to call out cabin 2 I was hoping Ken, Jasper and I could be in the same cabin. But Ken was called to go to cabin 2. After a few minutes my cabin was called my cabin was number 5. After I was in a cabin with Jasper, my leaders were Andrew, Mabsut and Ben. After when all the people were called the leaders showed us our cabin. First we picked up our bags and stuff, the we brought it to our cabin. When we were in our cabins we have to find a bed. I picked the bed close to the door. Jasper picked the bed next to me, some people picked the top bunk bed.
I'm not completely finish with my recount. Please give me some ideas that I could add in, also give me some feedback thanks.
Kamusta Aaron, I'm Venice and i had read your recount it was good. I think you need to give the readers more facts about the intro. Anyways all you did was amazing.
ReplyDeleteKia ora Aaron,
ReplyDeleteYou have shared a fabulous recount with us that details so many interesting aspects of your first day at camp. It sounds like you had a really good time getting to camp and selecting your bunk. When I was younger I used to go to camp every summer with my friends. The camp was called Camp Lauren and it was in Canada (where I am from). Each year we spent our week at camp going swimming, going for hikes, creating cool crafts and enjoying the natural environment. It was a really special time.
If you are interested in the environment and would like to practice your recounting skills, please join us this summer on the Summer Learning Journey blogging programme. It is a free digital blogging programme for students at Hornby Primary School (and at 45 other schools around the country). This will be the fourth year that we have run the programme and every year we have a great time!
I hope that you are able to join us this year!
All the best,
Rachel (and the rest of the Summer Learning Journey staff)
