15. For teachers: implementation of resource  This resource, including the assessment task will take approximately 3 – 4 weeks to complete.  If slightly adapted, this resource could allow for utilisation as a whole-class, small group, or individual activity.  This resource can be modified to suit multiple ages from as young as Prep to the middle years.  This resource has been designed in order to introduce the topic of Procedural Writing in the form of an interactive PowerPoint presentation, however teacher guidance and scaffolding as well as teacher and teacher aide support is required in order to achieve the desired outcomes.  Student’s must have computer access to complete the tasks. If availability of ICT’s is an issue; teacher can adapt resource to suit whole class delivery.  Some student’s may require additional one-on-one support when completing tasks due learning difficulties. This is where teacher aide support would be beneficial in order for all students to achieve at a benchmark standard.
