What Makes Good Instructions?

Yesterday we did an exercise to see what makes good instructions.

I think good instructions have to include...

Specific measurements, Such as:

Step forward 5 metres

Now take 1 step

Shuffle forward a couple of centimetres.

And clear directions, like:

Now turn left

In 2 seconds turn right

Turn right now and then turn left

I think it is important to give clear instructions so we can use accurate words to explain directions :)
