Year 2: How do you make a jam sandwich?

In English, we have been practising instruction writing. In order to better understand how to write instructions clearly, we wrote and then followed instructions on how to make a jam sandwich.

The children were able to clearly describe the steps in time order by using adverbs (first, then, next, after) and came up with a range of verbs that could be used to write commands (get, put, take, place, spread, smear, cut, eat, enjoy etc.).
