Lucky Dip Procedures Activity

This lucky dip resource is a fun and engaging way for students to apply their newly learnt knowledge of procedural texts. Students will recall procedural text structures, and use appropriate sentence-level grammar to create steps for a procedure.

This resource forms part of a larger procedural text writing unit.

This resource is a fantastic rotational activity or fast finisher. It may be implemented as a whole class, paired or individual activity.

Learning goals

  • We are learning to identify that texts serve different purposes and that this affects how they are organised.
  • We are learning to create texts for a purpose that show our understanding of the connection between writing, speech and images.
  • We are learning to create and edit short written texts to record and report ideas and events using capital letters, punctuation and correct spelling of CVC words.
  • We are learning to recognise that texts have different features and purposes, e.g. recount, narrate, express opinion, inform, report and explain.
  • We are learning to create, re-read and edit short written and multimodal texts to report on a topic, express an opinion or recount an event using capital letters, punctuation and correct spelling.
