A report is best described as...

• A made-up adventure story
• Facts about a topic, told in order
• A list of random opinions

What is a 'recount'?

• Telling about something that happened to you
• Making up a pretend story
• Reading facts from a book aloud

A recount should have a clear beginning, middle, and end.
