Procedural Writing

We Are Learning To write: 

Procedural Texts

 puppet's features.

We began by reading and discussing a variety of procedural texts, such as Getting Ready for Bed and the instructions for making sock puppets, which we had a go at making ourselves.

 to his sock puppet.

Edward had a go at following some complicated instructions for drawing a symographic hedgehog.  It took a lot of concentration, counting and ruling lines accurately.

We then practised writing our own procedural texts: How to Clean Your Teeth and How to Make a Healthy Sandwich.  Here is what Jade wrote:

2 pieces`of bread

2. You butter each side using a  butter knife.

5. Get a ham container out of the fridge and put some ham on top of your cheese.
6. Squirt some tomato sauce on your ham
7. Cut some delicious cucumber and put it on your tomato sauce.
8. You will love some crumbed chicken on your cucumber.
