Recounts, information reports, explanations. How do we write them? In spite of having taught these text types in detail consistently for several years, we are still giving feedback on the same aspects of these text types. To scaffold students into self managing their usage of these text types, I (Greg) have developed a diagram/ flow chart showing the structure, and an example of recounts, information reports, and explanations in one place.
Students will be referred to this diagram for feedback on these text types for their blog posts.
