Ideas needed for following instructions


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hello

Does anyone have any tried and tested ideas for following instructions - preferably pictorial/written?

Last week one of the children helped to put together a new stool. He enjoyed looking at the instructions and using the tools and was able to do this with a little support; I would like to develop this - I had thought about the cards which you can use with Popoids - but when I looked it was not really what I wanted.

Any thoughts?

What was it particularly about the popoid instructions you did not like? We use various things like that also we use bee bots to follow a route, or some cooking with pictures of how many spoonfuls to make their own playdough - could you engage this child in making a Lego construction and write the 'blueprint' for him, then see if he can re- create it, make a treasure map for him to follow

Hello Panders - the popoid instructions show either a picture of a constructed popoid figure/model with questions on the reverse or shows only the pieces needed to make a model without an 'end product' picture; I was really looking for step-by-step instructions with pictures/photos, so that the child has to follow the pictures to make the 'end product'.

Thanks for all your ideas everyone!
