CKLA Lesson 15 Happy Cinco De Mayo! This lesson is also available to watch on the next blog post.

Today we are going to start by playing a game. Please read the following directions and see if you can guess what I am doing. 

Turn on the water.
I Get my hands wet.
 I get 1 squirt of soap.
 I Rub my hands together and scrub, scrub, scrub!
 I Rinse my hands .
I Get a paper towel and dry my hands.

What am I doing?  (Washing hands)  
Now go find someone in your family and act this out for them. See if they can guess what you are doing. Make sure you follow these directions in order.

What do you want to end up with after you wash your hands? (Clean hands)
So when we write the directions for washing hands we could say when you have followed these steps you will have clean hands.

Remember good instructions always have a title too! We could say the title of these directions are “How to Wash Your Hands.”

So when we write this it would look like this

How to Wash Your Hands
  1. Turn on the water.
  2. Get your hands wet.
  3. Get 1 squirt of soap.
  4. Rub hands together and scrub, scrub, scrub!
  5. Rinse your hands .
  6. Get a paper towel and dry your hands.
When you have followed these steps you will have clean hands.

These are clear what clear instructions look like.

Please reread “A House in the Clouds” and answer the questions on 15.2
