Reindeer Ready - Christmas Recount Writing Lesson

This is a structured recount writing lesson based on the 2018 MacDonalds Advert #reindeer ready. The lesson leads you through each paragraph, encouraging children to add in different features of a recount. I have taught this lesson each year since the advert was released and every class has loved it. I have also included a handy rubric that children can use for self and Teacher assessment.
