Instructions and recipes
This collection of English non-fiction teaching resources aims to help children write instructional texts.
You’ll find worksheets to help children identify the features of instructions, such as headings, numbered lists, short sentences, time connectives and imperative verbs, along with planning sheets and templates for writing instructions.
There are teaching resources for both key stages including instruction writing activities based on works by Roald Dahl and worksheets to support children with writing clear instructions for making a sandwich or a cup of tea.
You may also like our non-fiction writing resource packs: Writing non-fiction (lower KS2) and Writing non-fiction (upper KS2) which include units on writing a set of instructions and WAGOLL texts. The packs are linked to national curriculum objectives and feature GPS (SPaG) activities as well as non-fiction texts and writing activities.
