This week we have been looking at texts

whose main purpose is to tell us what

happened – to cover a sequence of
events. They fall into 2 categories:
narratives, like the folk tales we have
read, and recounts, like the text about
the family trip to Yogyakarta in
Indonesia.
1. The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe
2. Our Summer Holiday
3. The Story of Lebron James
4. The World at War 1939-1945
5. The Dragon and The Snake
6. Diary of a President
7. A Dance to The Music of Time
In this lesson, we are going to
look at the similarities and
differences between narratives
and recounts using two of the
texts we looked at in previous
lessons.
• Narrative
• Recount
• Setting
• Crisis
• Resolution
• Sequence of events
