Instructional Writing in Hub 14/16
During the second half of this term the children have been learning how to write instructions in a range of settings. They have learnt that instructions need to be very specific, that each instruction begins with a verb and that they are sequenced in order of what needs to happen. Room 14 writers have been writing instructions for 'How to make fairy bread' and 'How to make a witches potion'. Room 16 writers have written instructions for 'How to blow a bubble'
