Class 6 have been writing and following instructions

Class 6 have been playing games in the English lessons.

Children in Class 6 have been learning all about instructions and how important it is to follow them in chronological order.

The children were asked to design their own board games, write out a set of instructions and then try out their games with a friend.

It was fun making up your own characters for a game – Corran

The children had great fun explaining their rules and then trying out their games. Children could be heard giving out instructions, counting and explaining what happens if you land on a certain picture.

I really liked playing Tess L game ‘Candy Land’ as she thought of some good obstacles to stop you winning’ – Finn

I loved playing the games, especially rolling the dice and getting to move on two spaces – Tess
