Sandwich Sequence

Worksheet Description

This worksheet invites students to write a set of instructions on how to make a sandwich, using sequential language to organize the steps. The goal is to think about the sandwich-making process and articulate it clearly for someone who may not know how to make one. Students are encouraged to use signal words like “first,” “to begin with,” “second,” “next,” “then,” “after that,” and “finally” to help structure their directions. The worksheet acts as a blank template for students to fill in with their own words, guiding them through the task of procedural writing.

The worksheet is designed to teach students the essential skill of writing clear and sequential instructions. By focusing on a familiar and tangible task, it emphasizes the importance of order and specificity in instructional writing. The use of transitional phrases is encouraged to help delineate each step and assist the reader in understanding the process. Through this activity, students learn how to effectively communicate a series of actions to achieve a desired outcome, which is a fundamental component of both written and verbal instructions.
