It can take any form depending on the age of the writer and purpose of the writing.
Mostly it is the recount in the persons own words and equates to the style the teacher has chosen and/or the students ability.
How? When? Where? Feel? can help focus.

The purpose of a recount is to list and describe past experiences by retelling events in the order in which they happened. Recounts are written to retell events with the purpose of either informing or entertaining their audience.
Personal Recount
These usually retell an event that the writer was personally involved in.
Factual Recount
Recording an incident, eg. a science experiment, police report.
Imaginative Recount
Writing an imaginary role and giving details of events.
Recounts are.written in the past tense.
There is frequent use made of words which link events in time, such as next, later, when, then, after, before, first, at the same time, as soon as she left, late on Friday.
Recounts describe events, so plenty of use is made of verbs.
Details are often chosen to add interest or humour to the recount.
Recounts use of personal pronouns.
The passive voice may be used.

1) A personal recount would be less concerned with emotion and more about the details of something. "I graduated high school, moved to Washington, started college, and two years later got married". 2) A personal reflection would be your assessment and feelings about something that has happened. "I remember feeling excited going to Washington, but I was naive thinking that it would be easy to start a new life in a strange city. It was lonely for a while, but I was strengthened by my family and friends back home. Their calls encouraged me and I was excited to find that I could be independent. I loved my college activities and surprisingly met my future husband during a difficult Biology class".
