Procedure Writing Prompt Cards

Overview:

A set of 20 procedure writing prompt cards designed to encourage students to write clear, structured procedural texts. Each card provides a writing prompt along with a reminder of the key elements of procedure writing.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand and apply the structure of a procedural text.
• Use clear, step-by-step language to explain a process.
• Develop writing skills in a practical, organised way.

How the Activity Works:

Students are presented with a set of 20 cards, each featuring a prompt for a different procedure (e.g., “Write a procedure explaining how to plant a seed” or “Write a procedure for flying a kite”). Each card also highlights the key elements of a procedural text, such as a title, materials, and steps. Students use the prompts to write their own procedures, applying the structure and language of procedural writing. This activity is ideal for helping students develop writing skills in a fun, creative way.
