In this activity, our friend Zara the zebra invites students to become inventors. Pupils must choose a creative object, such as a magical potion-maker or a futuristic robot, and draw it in detail. Once their masterpiece is complete, they must write a set of precise, step-by-step instructions on how to use their invention. This task encourages the use of imperative verbs, fronted adverbials, and technical vocabulary, which are key requirements for Year 5 writing.
This English instructions drawing sheet year 5 core resource is perfect for teachers looking to bridge the gap between creative arts and technical writing. It acts as an excellent starter for a lesson on non-fiction writing or as a fun homework task. Because the task is visual, it helps pupils organise their thoughts logically before committing them to prose, ensuring their instructions are easy for a reader to follow.
