The example of recount text
In the Beach



Last month, my family and I went to the beach. We wanted to refresh our mind and enjoy the fresh air. We went there early in the morning by car.
After parking our car, we walked along the beach barefooted. We could feel smoothness of the sand. The cold sea water touched our feet.
Then, we looked for a place to take a rest. We rolled out the mat on the ground and had meals together. While eating, we saw many things. Many children built sand castles. Some of them played with their balls. We also saw some people sunbathe.
After having meals, I was interested in doing the same thing. I made sand castles with my sister. Meanwhile, my brother collected some sea shells.
I was so happy and really enjoyed that day.
