Electronic day sparks off instruction writing

Yesterday Year 5 had an electronics day to kick start their English topic of instruction writing. They all brought in electronic (and some non-electronic!) devices/games from home, along with the instructions. They spent the first part of the morning testing out the instructions and identifying features of successful instructions. After break they had a go at creating their own instructions for a device. We then tested out our instructions and evaluated how helpful they were. Year 5 had a busy day, but learnt a lot about the importance of clear and precise instructions.
