How to re-tell a story in first person...

How to re-tell a story in first person…
This is a skill we have been working on for the last few weeks. The kids have been taking old fairy talks and nursery rhymes and rewriting them to be retold as a character.
My example as Jack and Jill:

One day, my brother and I had to go to the well to get water for our mom. When we got there, I was so tired from climbing that big hill.  Well, you can imagine my surprise when my brother Will tripped on his feet and fell down the hill! So, I took off down the hill to help him, but then I fell and rolled down the hill too!
