Review: Recount Text

A. The Function of Recount Text
Share our experience, story, and activity to reader.


B. Objective of Writing Recount Text
Inform and entertain the reader


C. Parts of Recount Text

1. Orientation: We share to reader what happened, where the story took place and when it happened.
2. Event: In this part we tell the reader the story in sequence or in order.
3. Reorientation: Ending of the text.


D. Simple Past Tense
We use simple past in tense in writing recount text. Simple past tense is used when we talk about action or action that happened in the past. The event can be short or long.

Example in short event:
She went to the canteen

Example of long event:
I lived in Bandung for 5 years

Subject + Verb 2 + Object

Simple past tense is using verb 2, the verb can be regular or irregular verb.
Example in regular verb:
My Father worked in Bogor

Example in irregular verb:
I went to the park last week

Regular verb ends by-ed, but irregular verb is ends by variable
