Warm-up (5min)

Teacher mimes sandwich steps out of order — students shout correct sequence numbers.

Main Activity (40min): "Sandwich Instruction Lab"

Demo with real or pretend ingredients (check allergies). Class chorally narrates each step with sequence words. Pairs write 6-step instructions — one writer, one checker verifies order. Partner swap: read instructions only (no pictures) — follower mimes or draws result. Error hunt: teacher reads jumbled instructions; class fixes order. Optional: illustrate final sandwich and label steps 1–6.

Wrap-up (5min)

Share funniest mistake when instructions were unclear — what word fixed it?

Teacher Tips

• Imperative verbs (spread, put, add) — no subject needed in instructions.
• Allergy check mandatory before any real food; paper props work fine.
• Movers Listening Part 4 sequence tasks mirror this instruction format.
