Recount Writing-I went to the park.

WALT add details to help our readers understand our story.

I also added interesting words, talking, similes, feelings and thoughts.

I went to the park.

On Saturday afternoon me and my family went to the park in Kaikohe.

I felt excited when I got to the park.

When we got to the park we saw the swings and the playground. I said to my mum and dad, “This is cool here.”

The first thing I did at the park was I played on the swing. I felt very pumped up like a balloon in the air.

Next we played on the slide and it was fun as.    I said to myself, “This is very awesome.”

After that  we had a race around the park. I had a cool time at the park.

In the weekend

In the weekend it was mine and my brother’s birthday.

All my cousins came over to our birthday at my house in Awarua.

We had fun eating yummy food and playing. I said to my cousins Deeken and Dezray and Julius, “This is a cool birthday.”

Then we had a swim at the Twin Bridges. I said  to my mum and dad and brother, “Let's do some bombs.” We did a few bombs. I said to Julius, “This is fun as.”

Then we went home and had dinner. We had kumara and pork and mince. I said, “This is very yum.” Next we went to watch some movies and  cartoons. We cooked some popcorn and ate it in the lounge and I said, “I am very full.” “Then we drifted off to sleep.
