This is a session for L 1/2 learners. The Instruction Writing question has appeared in new spec exams and is one that has puzzled a few teachers, including myself. Keeping it simple, it covers sentences, some punctuation and has a couple of tasks and examples. One task requires minimising the narrations screen, while the slide show is running, and moving them around to order them. It also has information from the local area - so you may want to update that with instructions of your own. There are brief details in the slide notes. Created with step-by-step animation, to aid delivery and questioning. I’ve made it as east to deliver as possible, so I hope people like it. Please leave a review! It would be much appreciated. =-)

Here is a little free session on Hand-washing and Coronavirus (Covid-19). Contextually appropriate, this contains two nonfictional sources and is aimed at L1/2 students. It can be used as a revision session or an assessment one and has answers in a powerpoint slide set. The previews on here are a bit rubbish. Download and run the slideshow yourself, to see how it works. The writing also looks better than the preview shows! Again, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
