Yoga Pose

We have been continuing to learn about writing instructions and we decided to link this to our Physical Literacy focus which stability.
We watched this video

and chose our favourite one to write our own instructions for.
We had play with our learning and challenged ourselves to write using our iPads.
Here is an example of what we did.

Oral Language Activity - Giving Instructions

We have been learning about writing instructions. Today we did an oral language activity where we had to give instructions to a buddy on how to draw a simple picture. It was challenging at times to give really specific instructions so that our buddy knew exactly what to draw. In our pairs, we were either 'Person A' or 'Person B'. Person A started by giving Person B instructions on how to draw a bee, and then we swapped over and Person B gave Person A instructions on how to draw a plant. This was good practise for next week, when we are going to try writing instructions for drawing either a ladybird, an owl, or a snowman.

Instructions

How to make jelly.

This week we have been learning how to write instructions. 
We learnt that you have to be bossy when writing instructions and start each instruction with a strong verb.
You have to put the instructions in order and began by telling people what you need. 

We wrote instructions on how to make jelly.

Here are some examples of our work and the pictures we took to help us remember.
