In one of the Writing lessons the yr 3.1 students talked about instructions. The children learned what instructions are, what they are used for and where one can encounter them in everyday life.  They also learned about sequencer words such as first, next, then, etc., as well as imperative verbs. 

Students then focused on how to make a jam sandwich. The students participated in different leveled writing activities, varying from ordering a set of instructions, drawing pictures according to the given instructions, matching an instruction to a given picture, as well as writing the instructions themselves. 

To make this activity more meaningful, the students decided to actually make the sandwiches in class. The students got the necessary ingredients and made a sandwich with their preferred spread. Finally, they all enjoyed eating their creations!
