Ferrymead Recounts

Room 2 have written recounts of our trip to Ferrymead last term. 

We know a good recount has to have...

• An orientation. 

This includes who, what, when and where.

• A sequence of events. 

This is the events that happened in the correct order with at least two sentences written about each of them.

• A summary. 

This is something we learned or something we enjoyed.

We used these as our success criteria.  Here are some of our recounts.

Ferrymead Trip

On Wednesday we went to Ferrymead.  There were lots and lots of people.

First we made a lolly cake.  We set the table. 

Then we watched a movie.  The movie was Tom and Jerry.

After that we went to school and we read a story and we did printing. 

Next we went to Toys and Games and there was metal and plastic toys there too.  I was fascinated how they made them.

The last thing we did was the tram.  We went slow.  The tram had no doors in the middle of the tram. 

My favourite activity was the movie.  I was fascinated how they made the curtains open and shut.

Trip to Ferrymead

Last term Year 1-6 went to Ferrymead to see what life was like for our grandparents.

When we got to Ferrymead we dressed up.  I had to wear a dress.

Next we went to the kitchen and cooked lolly cake.  I had to grind the biscuits. 

After that we went to the movie theatre.  We watched two movies.

Almost at the end we went to the school.  We did a sheet and some reading.  The teacher was fun.

Then we went to toys and games.  My favourite thing was the bubbles because I liked popping them. 

Last of all we went on the tram.  The tram went slow but it was really exciting.

One thing I learned from Ferrymead is that our grandparents used to watch Tom and Jerry too.
