Activity 1
Today, we're looking at the genre of storytelling. Narratives and recounts are two ways of describing events.
What do you think is the difference between narratives and recounts?
Narratives and recounts both relate events that took place in the past and which occur in a logical order.
The difference is that narratives try to make sense of what happened and link the events through cause and effect. Also, recounts tend to be factual, but narratives are usually fictional.
