Show transcript
We use notes from our plan to form a range of full sentences. Fronted adverbials of time communicate the chronology of events in a recount. Conjunctions are used to create a range of sentence types. Hyperbole is used to exaggerate emotions in a diary entry. The use of progressive past and simple past tenses is an effective way to recount experiences and feelings.
