Audio Transcript Auto-generated

• 00:01 - 00:03

  today, our writing is gonna focus on writing to explain.

• 00:04 - 00:08

  I'm going to think specifically a bite writing, instruction, text.

• 00:09 - 00:10

  So what you think about this question?

• 00:10 - 00:11

  What are the features?

• 00:12 - 00:19

  Often instruction text night in cosmic Liam went into his

• 00:20 - 00:23

  dad dad's rim and find a copy of High to

• 00:23 - 00:27

  talk to your teen on Dhe in that it gave

• 00:28 - 00:33

  a really good clear instruction on how to deal with

• 00:33 - 00:34

  your team in certain situations.

• 00:35 - 00:38

  So here's an example of one of the instructions.

• 00:39 - 00:42

  So if you want to pause the video and have

• 00:42 - 00:51

  a little look, it this one here's another example of

• 00:51 - 00:53

  some instructions that the book was giving.

• 00:55 - 00:57

  We can pause the video and have a look at

• 00:57 - 01:05

  that. So one of things we need to remember when

• 01:05 - 01:09

  we're writing instruction text is that we can include little

• 01:09 - 01:10

  topic headings on.

• 01:11 - 01:15

  We can divide our instructions intersections so you could have

• 01:15 - 01:15

  a topic.

• 01:15 - 01:20

  Headings. Yeah, we're gonna have some We need to have

• 01:21 - 01:23

  content that tells the reader what they need to dio

• 01:26 - 01:30

  on dhe in that we need to use what we

• 01:30 - 01:33

  call imperative verbs, which are bossy verbs.

• 01:34 - 01:37

  So, for example, listen to what they have to say

• 01:37 - 01:41

  or feed them once a day, so lesson on fade

• 01:42 - 01:45

  are both imperative verbs.

• 01:49 - 01:51

  So the task that I would like you to have

• 01:51 - 01:54

  a go at doing today is I would like to

• 01:54 - 01:58

  imagine that you are writing some advice for some Children

• 01:58 - 02:00

  who are coming into my class.

• 02:01 - 02:03

  So maybe the Children that are already in year four.

• 02:04 - 02:07

  What advice would you give, um, for coming into missiles

• 02:07 - 02:12

  class? So I'd like you to write little paragraphs of

• 02:12 - 02:15

  some advice a little bit like the paragraphs that we've

• 02:15 - 02:18

  seen in that book that Liam was reading on DSO

• 02:19 - 02:21

  have ago at doing that.

• 02:21 - 02:22

  Email your ideas straight.

• 02:23 - 02:26

  I look forward to reading from underneath this video.

• 02:26 - 02:30

  I've got a few ideas, a few examples to give

• 02:30 - 02:31

  you a little bit of help.

• 02:32 - 02:32
