Last winter I was working on directions writing with my students. The main focus was on the Chinese New Year Day we had at school, but one of my students was absent and missed it. As an alternate assignment I had him write the steps of how to build a snowman. In our brainstorming we thought that it would be best to write the final draft in the actual order in which one builds a snowman; from the bottom up! It came out really neat!
First, (is the bottom of the snowman)
Next, (is the middle of the snowman)
Then, (is the snowman's head)
Last, (is decorating the snowman)
Unfortunately, the one photograph I have is not very good, but it will have to do. :-)
