We have been developing or directional language skills to help us to write clear instructions for people to follow. We have learnt lots of new language including half and quarter turn and clockwise and anti-clockwise.

We had to write instructions to help the bird get to the worms to feed its baby in the nest followed by creating our own hunt with a partner. We had to think about a habitat and what type of home the animal might live in as well as think about what it eats. We had to you write the directions as a set of instructions?

  

We then worked in the hall with a partner using 6 cones. We had to choose a start point and a finish point and put the other cones in between. One of us put the blindfold on and using verbal instructions we had to direct our partner to each cone finally ending up at the finish point. We then drew our own maps and wrote on the directional language before writing out the instructions in clear sentences using time connectives, prepositions, imperative verbs and commands.
