Assalamu'alaikum bro,
Kembali lagi di blog saya, dalam kesempatan kali ini semoga teman teman sekalian juga masih dalam keadaan sehat ya kawan.
Oke kawan, di blog yang kemarin saya sudah sedikit membahas materi tentang Descriptive teks ya, akan tetapi dalam kesempatan kali ini akan membagikan materi tentang Understanding Recount.
1. Definition
The recount text type retells an experience or an event that happened in the past.

3. Text Structure
Orientation, the first structure that contains information about the character, the scene, when the event took place and so on. The information provided by the author is expected to provide the knowledge or information needed by the reader in order to understand the storyline.
Events, the second structure is the content of the text or in the form of stories about events or experiences that the author wants to convey to the reader.
Reorientation, the third structure contains conclusions as well as summaries or repetition of information contained in the orientation structure.

4. Types of Recount
Personal recount
A personal recount is what’s most likely to be covered in school. This type of recount writing is all about the writer’s recollection of a particular event or experience. It includes things like diary writing, but it’s also what we do whenever we tell someone a story about something that happened to us.
Factual recount
A factual recount includes things like newspaper reports. The purpose of a factual recount is to inform (rather than entertain) the reader about a particular event. Because of this, adverbs and adjectives are less important. You’ll often see facts and figures in this kind of recount writing.
Imaginative recount
This kind of recount writing applies factual knowledge of an event to create a fictional account of that event. The purpose of an imaginative recount is to help the reader understand an event by providing a fictional recount that’s as true-to-life as possible. They’re perfect for creative writing lessons.
Procedural recount
Procedural recounts aren’t very common in English lessons - they’re more for scientists. In fact, they’re most often used to describe an experiment so that it can be replicated by others. Because of this, the language needs to be exact. Procedural recounts might not even involve the use of full sentences.
Literary recount
This kind of recount writing is all about entertainment. They can be about fictional or real events and involve real or fictional characters. For an interesting writing challenge, why not try exploring a fictional event with real characters, and vice versa.?

6. Sample
Example of personal account text
A Trip to the National Zoo and Aquarium
Yesterday, my family and I went to the National Zoo and Aquarium to visit the new Snow Cubs and the other animals. In the morning, when we got to the Zoo and Aquarium there was a big big line, so we had to wait a while to get in.
After we entered the zoo, we went straight to the enclosure for the Snow Cubs. My brother and I were so excited to see them. They were so cute and playful. At lunchtime Dad decided to cook a bbq. He cooked sausages so we could have sausage sandwiches. My Mom forgot the tomato sauce so we had to eat them plain. In the afternoon, we visited the aquarium. My brother was excited to see the sharks and the tropical fish. At the end of the day when we left we were going to go and get ice cream but we decided we were too tired so we drove straight home, but of course I was very happy.

7. Write
During my holiday break, I decided to spend some time at home. It was a welcome change from my usual routine of going to school and doing homework.
I spent the first few days just relaxing and catching up on some much-needed sleep. I also spent a lot of time with my family, which was nice because we don't always get to spend as much time together as we would like.
One of the things I enjoyed most about being at home was being able to cook my own meals. I love to cook, and I was able to try out some new recipes that I had been wanting to try. I also made some of my favorite dishes, like my mom's famous lasagna and my dad's delicious grilled chicken.
Another thing I enjoyed was being able to catch up on some of my favorite TV shows and movies. I was able to watch a lot of new releases that I had missed while I was busy with school. I also spent some time playing video games and reading books, which was a nice way to relax and unwind.
Overall, I had a great time spending my holiday break at home. It was a much-needed break from my usual routine, and it was nice to be able to spend some quality time with my family. I'm already looking forward to my next holiday at home.
