This lucky dip resource is a fun and engaging way for students to apply their newly learnt knowledge of procedural texts. Students will recall procedural text structures, and use appropriate sentence-level grammar to create steps for a procedure.
This resource forms part of a larger procedural text writing unit.
This resource is a fantastic rotational activity or fast finisher. It may be implemented as a whole class, paired or individual activity.

Create and re-read to edit short written and/or multimodal texts to report on a topic, express an opinion or recount a real or imagined event, using grammatically correct simple sentences, some topic-specific vocabulary, sentence boundary punctuation and correct spelling of some one- and two-syllable words
Create and participate in shared editing of short written texts to record and report ideas and events using some learnt vocabulary, basic sentence boundary punctuation and spelling some consonant–vowel–consonant words correctly
Understand that the purposes texts serve shape their structure in predictable ways
Create short imaginative and informative texts that show emerging use of appropriate text structure, sentence-level grammar, word choice, spelling, punctuation and appropriate multimodal elements, for example illustrations and diagrams
