Instruction writing has definitely got the year 2's hooked! The children have really enjoyed the practicals that have been carried out alongside their writing. To begin the unit: we made a healthy Rainbow fruit salad, during the unit some children made a Japaneses Butterfly card and to bring the unit to an end, this week we have made our own 'Hot chocolate.'
Having had the opportunity to make a hot chocolate for themselves has had a direct impact on their ability to plan this as an exciting writing piece. I hope that next week the children will produce some pieces of quality writing! Mrs Elliott and I can not wait to read them.
Take a look at some of the photographs taken during our Hot Chocolate practical. In groups the children all contributed to giving a set of verbal instructions, including the features of a good set of instructions (time connectives, adverbs and detail in sentences.)
Miss Kerry and Mrs Elliott :)
