Recount Writing Template FREEBIE from Writing Graphic Organisers

This freebie is a sample from the resource 'Writing Graphic Organisers' available here.

Take a seat Hamburger Planners...say hello to a new range of graphic organisers! These printable planning templates are perfect for both teacher modelling and student recording in the pre-writing stage of the writing process!

Not to mention, each design is different because no writing genre is the same, right? So why wouldn't we reflect that in our planning?

This 64-page resource contains a range of single page planning sheets with prompts and recording space. The planning sheets are designed to be used for students in Year 3-6 but knowing my past students, these would still be great fits for both my Year 2 and Year 7 students and I would just alter my expectation around detail, vocabulary, number of paragraphs etc to suit varying abilities.

This resource comes in both colour and grayscale versions for the following Writing genres:

• Narrative (1)

• Recount (1)

• Information Report (1)

• Explanation (3)

• Biography (1)

• Letter (1)

• Persuasive (2)

• Descriptive (3 - Character, Setting, Object)

• Instructions (1)

It is part of a new line of teaching resources I'm working on called PLAN IT WRITE IT IMPROVE IT and for a limited time, ALSO includes the writing frames which correspond with each of the planning sheets!

Planning a piece of writing is one of my favourite things to do - generating ideas and vocabulary...seeing the seeds of a great piece of writing sprouting in front of my eyes...ooh it gets me excited! But I know that it is the stage of the writing process that a lot of students struggle with so I want to do the best I can to make it as easy and inspiring as I can.

Until then,
Happy planning, team!
