Bike riding, procedural writing and predicting our students’ futures

As readers will see we have been working hard at perfecting our bike skills. I am most grateful to Senior Constable Tony Woodcroft from Colac Police Station who assisted us with this year’s bike Ed program. If you’d like more information about our bike ed program, then go to our Beeac primary school site and look at the September 15/09 newsletter.
Anyway, I digress.
It was fascinating to look at our student’s procedural writing techniques when they were asked to write a small section about how to turn right.
It seems like a straight forward task: just describe each step in a series of processes to get from one road to another without getting knocked over by traffic.
And yet was it that simple? Our students actually completed a quite complex task. Have a look at Hayden’s blog for an excellent outcome.
For the next two weeks we will be on holiday, so we will resume shortly
