Year 2 Instruction Writing: Order, Explain and Write

Develop Year 2 instruction writing with six picture sequences, sequencing activities, writing practice, model answers and revision tasks.

WHAT IS INCLUDED
• Six original four-picture sequences: a folded card, a robot drawing, a six-block tower, a paper fan, a packed pencil case and a numbered paper path.

• Optional word banks and six writing pages.
• Model text and teacher model answers.
• Revision tasks and partner feedback.
• Independent planning and publishing pages.

HOW TO USE
Discuss a picture sequence and put the steps in order. Use the optional word banks to support pupils as they write clear instructions. Ask pupils to test their instructions with a partner, identify unclear details and improve their writing.
