An introduction with background information
1. Use short and simple sentences
Effective instruction is simple. Don't use long, involved sentences. Instead, use short, clear sentences.
Language features
2. Use imperative mood
Instructions should be full of active, descriptive words. Start your steps with action verbs. This gives the reader a clear action to perform.
For example, use “collect a bag of seashells from the beach” instead of “a bag of seashells should be collected from the beach.”
Language features
3. Address the reader
When writing instructions, you should address the reader. Do this by using the word “you” or “your”. This helps lead the reader personally through the steps.
Language features
4. Make your statements specific
When writing instructions, be as specific as possible. Outline exactly what readers should do. This includes what shapes and sizes of seashells to select, where to arrange the seashells and how to stick each seashell to the cardboard.
Language features
5. Use sequence and time transitions
Transitions help connect the steps to each other. They also help relate the ideas. In instructions, you will use sequence and time transitions. This helps the reader understand the step-by-step instructions.
Some common transitions are: first, next, then, finally, after, before.
Language features
6. Give an example if necessary
If you think a statement may puzzle the readers, you can give an example to illustrate. Such as “Cut the vegetables to create different parts of the face. For example, red peppers can be used to make the mouth.”
Language features

Procedures
