Grade 5 & 6 have been working on different way to present a “procedure” The purpose of procedural writing is to tell someone how to do something. The most common form of a procedure is a recipe but it can be instructions for many different things such as solving a maths problem, drawing a picture or playing a game. The information is presented in a logical sequence of events which is broken up into small steps. The students were asked to present a procedure rather than simply write one.
They planned and practiced their instructions using the computer to screencast and record the audio narration. Below are some examples of how inventive the students have been with their “PROCEDURAL TEXTS”.

Wow! Your video looks great! I wonder if my wife would mind if I tried to throw a shot put in my front yard!
How did you make the video? The animation looks great! My students have made several videos this year. You should check them out on my website or visit the class blog.
