our English curriculum, but it&#8217;s a great communication skill to have as well. Our Grade 1 students were introduced to this new writing genre recently. Together as a class, they created the success criteria for writing an instructional report, in which they could exercise their creativity. The children then engaged in a fun experience of planting seeds and will soon write an instruction report describing the process of their growth into saplings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-exad-particle-enable=\"false\"
