Monster Pizza - Instructions

﻿Hello and welcome to lesson six of our unit on monster pizza. My name is Miss Burke and I am a teacher with the Oak Academy. In lesson four we had so much fun coming up with all of that disgusting vocabulary to use as our ingredients for our pizza for a Monster. Today we are going to be looking at vocabulary again, but this time we are going to be looking again at the vocabulary we use in instructions. And we are going to practise using that vocabulary as well. Let's get started. Let's look at our agenda for today. First, we will do a warmup. Next we will look at some word classes. Then we will build some vocabulary. And finally, we will do our task. In this lesson you will need an exercise book or a piece of paper, a pencil, and your brain. If you don't have any of those things, please pause the video and go and get them now. Good job. It's time for our warm up. We are going to do some acting for our warmup today. You can see here, I have the verb stir. It's a doing word. That's how I know it is a verb. And we are now going to do some acting. We are going to mime stirring. So you'll need your bowl and you'll need your spoon. And you're going to stir. Maybe you've stirred before. Maybe you've baked before and you've done some stirring. Okay but now I would like you to stir quickly. Okay everybody's still quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly. Good job, okay. Stop. Now I would like you to stir slowly. This is much better. Stirring quickly hurt my arm. Okay and stop. And lastly, I would like you to stir lazily. So we don't really want to be doing this. We're feeling a bit lazy about stirring. Maybe we look a bit bored. Really good, lazy stirring. Well done. What did you notice about these words quickly, slowly, lazily? What did they do to my verb? Hmm. They changed the way I performed my verb didn't I? First I was stirring. But then I was stirring quickly. Then slowly. And lazily. These are called adverbs and they describe verbs. We're going to be looking a little bit closer at our adverbs later on. So quickly, slowly and lazily are three examples of adverbs. We're going to be looking for some adverbs in our writing today. But first let's look at some word classes used in instructions. What features of instructions can you remember? In lesson one we looked at sequencing words and imperative verbs. I wonder if you can remember any sequencing words or any imperative verbs. I'd like you to pause the video now and write down any sequencing words you can remember. And then any imperative verbs you can remember. Off you go. Well done, I bet you remembered loads. Let's have a look at our sequencing words. We could have words like first, next, then, after that, and finally. And some examples of imperative verbs, you might've thought of some ones that aren't on this list. Spread, mix, sprinkle and cook. Good job. If you manage to remember some sequencing words and some imperative verbs. Okay. Here I have some instructions for making a pizza. And there's just a reminder at the top that says if you are going to make a pizza using my instructions, do not try this without a parents or carer's help. You must make sure if you're going to make something like pizza, you have a parent or carer to help you. Okay. I would like you first to pause the video and read through the instructions. Off you go. Good job, okay. Let's read through the instructions together now. Starting with number one. First, slowly mix the yeast, water and flour together until it forms a sticky dough. Next gently shape the dough into a round ball and carefully roll the dough into a flat circle. After that, thickly spread the tangy, tasty sauce on top of the pizza so it is covered. Finally, generously sprinkle salty pepperoni, fresh herbs, and delicious cheese on the pizza and bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Those are my instructions for making a pizza. Now I would like you to find and write down the sequencing words in these instructions. So when I say pause, I'd like you to find and write down the sequencing words. Pause the video now. Okay, well done. We did this in lesson one. So hopefully you've remembered those sequencing words. Let's have a look. We've got in these instructions, first, next, after that, and finally. Good job if you manage to find them all. Give yourself a tick for each sequencing word that you managed to find. Okay. Now I would like you to find the imperative verbs. Those bossy, doing words. What are the doing words in my instructions? I've kept the sequencing words highlighted so you don't get confused. I would like you to find and write down the imperative verbs in my instructions. Pause the video now. Good job. Let's go through together and see if we managed to find them all. Okay we had the verb mix, shape, roll, spread, sprinkle, and bake. Let's just make sure that all verbs. Let's see, can we mix? Everyone try and mix. We can mix. Okay, can we shape the dough into a ball? Everyone try. Yes, we can that is a verb. Can we roll the dough? Let's try that. We can roll, that is a verb. Let's try the next one, which is spread. Everyone spread your sauce on your pizza. We can spread, spread is a verb. It's a doing word. Lastly, we've got sprinkle. We've got sprinkle. And then finally bake. So let's open our oven, put our pizza in, close our oven. And now the pizza is baking. Good job. We found all those verbs. Maybe you find found that by yourself or maybe we found them together. But good job either way. Okay. We need to think now about what other types of words we can find in instructions. Okay the other types of words, we might find find in instructions are those words that we talked about in our warm up this lesson. Those are adverbs. In instructions, we might see adverbs of manner. In instructions, these tell the reader how the action should be completed. And adverbs often end in the letters L-Y. so I've got a few examples here. Let's act them out together. So my first one is gently mix. Now remember mix is another word for stir. So let's gently mix. That means we don't want to do it too fast. Okay gently mixing, good. Really good gentle mixing. Excellent work. Okay, we might carefully cut. We might carefully cut because we don't want to hurt ourselves. So that's mine carefully cutting reading, really making sure this is my chopping board. This is my knife. Carefully cutting. Well done. Now remember we're just acting out cutting. If you need to do any cutting, you must ask a parent or a carer and they must be with you. We're not going to do any cutting except for pretend cutting by ourselves. And our last one is generously spread. Now when somebody is generous, that means they give lots of things away. So when we're generously spreading, it means we're going to put lots on. That's what it means. Okay so let's generously spread. Let's slop it on. And let's spread onto our pizza dough. Really good job. Okay. Let's find some adverbs in the instructions. So here are the instructions again. We've highlighted our sequencing words and we've highlighted out imperative verbs. I wonder now if you can find the adverbs? Remembering that they might, or they usually end in the letters L-Y. And they're going to be near one of our verbs aren't they? Because they tell us how to complete the action, how to do the verb. They describe the verb. Okay. I would like you to pause the video and write down all the adverbs you can find. Off you go. Really well done. Let's see, and go through our instructions. Did you manage to find them all? First we had slowly. It's telling us how to mix. We are going to slowly mix. Everyone slowly mix. We don't want any iffy ingredients to get too mushed, we're slowly mixing. Okay then we had to gently shape. Our next adverb was gently. Okay gently shape our dough into a round ball. Really good job. Oh lovely, gentle, shaping. Our next one was carefully roll. We don't want to roll. We don't want to not be careful when we roll. 'Cause our dough might get too thin so we have to carefully roll. So carefully roll your dough. Really good. Making sure it's not too thin by keeping it in a circle. Good job. Then we're going to thickly spread. That's a bit like generously spread. That means we want the sauce to be nice and thick. So let's practise thickly spreading. Let's get our sauce, put it on and making sure it's nice and thickly spread on top of our pizza dough. Well done. Then we've got generously. We remember that word. It means do sprinkle lots. We've got generously sprinkled. So that means it was a lot of the toppings. Okay let's generously sprinkle. Let's get our ingredients in our hand. Here's our pizza. And let's generously sprinkle them on our pizza. We're putting lots and lots and lots and lots on our pizza toppings. On our top of our pizza. So it's all covered. Well done. Now we will be building vocabulary for our instructions. What sequencing words could we use in our instructions? When I say I would like you to pause the video and write down every sequencing word that you can think of. Pause the video now. Okay, good job. I wonder how many you thought of. I'm going to share my sequencing words with you now. And then if you like, you can magpie some of mine, if you liked them. I have first, next, then, after that, and finally. I wonder if you thought at the same ones as me, or if you thought of different ones. Now I'd like you to think about what imperative verbs could we use in our instructions. Hmm. You might have to think about if you've done some cooking before. If you have, what did you do when you are cooking? Did you chop? Did you mix? Did you stir? Did you spread? Those are all examples of imperative verbs. You could also think back to our instructions earlier this lesson, our instructions on how to make a pizza. And you could think about or magpie some of the verbs we used in those instructions. I would like you to pause the video and write down all the imperative verbs to do with cooking that you can think of now. Okay, excellent work. Here are some of the ones that I thought of. And as always, you can magpie any that you like. I thought of roll, spread, mix, stir, bake, eat, pour, and sprinkle. I wonder if you thought of any extra ones or if you thought of some of the same ones as me. Finally, I want you to write down the adverbs that we could use before our verbs. Hmm, it might be a good idea to have your list of verbs in front of you. And then you could think about what adverbs it would be, what adverbs would be appropriate to put before those verbs. So do you watch people cooking to be careful? Do you want them to be generous? Do you want the sauce to be thick? So you're going to tell them to thickly spread. Do you want them to mix slowly or quickly? Have a think. Pause the video and write down all the adverbs that you can think of now. Well done. I'm going to share mine with you now. And as always, you can magpie any that you like. I thought of gently, thickly, generously, slowly, quickly and carefully. I could put those before my imperative verbs and that will tell the person reading the instructions, how those verbs need to be actioned. Okay it's time for our independent task. I would like you to rewrite these sentences, filling in the gaps with the sequencing word, adverb and an imperative verb. So I've told you the order I'd like you to do it in. So it says sequencing word, adverb, verb. And then I've written the end of the sentence for you. So the first sentence says, sequencing word, adverb, verb the dough until it is combined. So the sequencing word I might use in that sentence would be first because it's the first instruction. And I would remember to write my tall capital letter and to put a comma after first. So first, something, something the dough until it is combined. Okay. I think the verb I will choose will be mix. And I think I would like people to slowly mix the dough. So my first sentence is going to be first comma, slowly mix the dough until it is combined. That will be my first sentence. It's now your turn to pause the video and fill in the gaps for all three sentences. All three sentences need to have a sequencing word an adverb and a verb. Pause the video now and off you go. Okay, good job. I hope that you used the word bank that you had built in front of you. All of those sequencing words, adverbs and verbs that we just wrote down. You can use those to help you. Let's have a look at mine. So I had first, slowly mix the dough until it is combined. Next, thickly spread the tomato sauce on the dough. And finally, I chose finally because it was the final or the last instruction. Finally, generously sprinkle on the pizza toppings. Now I'd like to give yourself some ticks. I would like you to give yourself a tick every time you have remembered a capital letter at the start of your sentence. I would like you to give yourself a tick for every sequencing word you have used. I would like you to give yourself a tick for every adverb you have used. I would like you to give yourself a tick for every verb you have used. And finally, I'd like you to give yourself a tick for every full stop that you have remembered. Excellent work. Okay. Today we have done our warmup. We have looked at our word classes. We have built some vocabulary and we have completed a task. Really good job today. Congratulations, you have completed your lesson. If you would like to, please share your work with a parent or a carer. Good job today.
