Students to write their own recount of what happened. Use places, descriptions and a sequence of events. Write how you felt.
There was an earthquake on Saturday. I was sitting on my couch outside in my deck in the back yard when I heard a deep rumbling in the ground. Everything shook violently. It peaked quickly then slowly calmed down. Afterwards I could hear the next door neighbors swimming pools water slapping the side of the pool and splashing onto the ground in the grass. I enjoyed the sway of the deck but was worried that my children were scared.
This was a lovely written out recount
