OH NO! The aliens have landed....we saw them coming yesterday and now they're here....!!!

But wait.... it's ok.... they are friendly!

HELLO EARTHLING MY NAME IS GNOG. I COME FROM THE PLANET ZAXON. MY JOB ON THIS MISSION IS TO RESEARCH EARTH FOOD AND DRINK. CAN YOU HELP ME UNDERSTAND?

I think we can help Gnog.

Let's write him a set of clear instructions for how to:

• Make a sandwich

Watch the videos below for some tips on writing instructions:

Your challenge is to write a clear, easy to follow set of instructions for Gnog. Write them in your exercise book at the English end.

• Make sure that you write each step in detail
• Do not assume Gnog knows something - explain it to him
• Use time conjunctions such as: first, next, meanwhile, following, finally

When you have written your instructions give them to a grown-up.... ask them to pretend to be Gnog and to follow EXACTLY your instructions..... did they work?

Grown-ups ... there is a video below for you to help you TEST the instructions fully
