Procedure – 2

     Getting to school
     ANALYSIS

                         This procedure explains how to do something.
                        The main purpose is to direct, inform or explain.

            Ryan moved into Davies Road, the street where Jeremy and
            his family live. He will be attending Jeremy’s school. Ryan’s
            mother, Mrs Gill, was asked to attend an interview with the
            principal. Mrs Gill asked Jeremy for directions to the school.
            Read the discussion between Ryan’s mother and Jeremy.

                                            Getting to school
               Mrs Gill:             Jeremy, can you please explain to me how I get to your school?

               Jeremy:               Of course! It’s not very far. First you have to drive along Davies
                                     Road until you reach the T-junction at the end. This is Gallop Road.
                                     Turn right into Gallop Road and continue until you reach the next
                                     T-junction.

               Mrs Gill:             OK. You mean go to the end of this road and then turn right. What
                                     happens at the T-junction?

               Jeremy:               That’s correct. Gallop Road forms a T-junction with Adelma Road.
                                     Turn left into Adelma. You will go past Watkins Road on your right
                                     and a littler further on you will see Edna Road on your left. Continue
                                     past these two streets. You will come to a roundabout which has a
                                     large oak tree in the middle. This road is Brook Avenue.

               Mrs Gill:             Is that the street with the shopping centre?

               Jeremy:               Yes. Go straight ahead at the roundabout and continue along
                                     Adelma Road. After you cross Riley Road, which is the next street,
                                     you will see the school playing fields. Turn right into Colin Street.
                                     There is a car park for visitors near the main entrance. Then you will
                                     see the signs to the principal’s office.

               Mrs Gill:             Thank you, Jeremy. I should be able to follow your directions quite
                                     easily.

                   The format of the procedural text Getting to school is different from the one
                   studied previously (Mini pizzas). Getting to school is a set of directions to follow.

            Answer the following questions on the structure of this procedure.
            1. Does this procedure have a goal?                                                                                yes              no

                   What is it?

            2. Are there any requirements listed?                                                                              yes              no

                   Explain why/why not.

            3. Are there instructions to follow?                                                                               yes              no

                   Is it important that they are followed in a particular order?                                               yes              no
            4. Use the map to mark the route Mrs Gill needed to follow. Draw the school and the oak
               tree.

                                                                 Suffixes
                     A suffix is a group of letters attached to the end of a word. For example:
                           love       lovely       loves     loved       lover          loving   loveless
                     Rule
                     The general spelling rule for adding a suffix to a word is simply to add it. For example:
                     Adding ly
                     soft – softly                         sad – sadly                  sudden – suddenly

               1. Add the suffix ly to these words.

                     (a) glad                                            (b) rude

                     (c) proud                                           (d) slow

                     (e) quick                                           (f)    sure

                     (g) bad                                             (h) serious

                     (i) brave                                           (j)    savage

                     (k) swift                                           (l)    light

                     (m) rapid                                           (n) coward

                     Rule
                     To add ly to words ending in le after a consonant, change the e to y. For example:
                           horrible            horribly
                     (b is a consonant so the e is changed to y)

               2. Use this rule to add ly to these words. Is there a consonant before the le?

                     (a) simple                                           (b) terrible

                     (c) visible                                          (d) idle

                     (e) noble                                            (f) feeble

                     (g) comfortable                                      (h) noticeable

                     (i) sensible                                         (j) possible

                   Adding suffixes to some words is more difficult and there are other spelling rules we
                   need to know.
                   The one-one-one rule
                   To apply this rule you need to understand:      •   short vowels (see page 8)
                                                                   •   consonants (see page 9)
                                                                   •   syllables (see page 9)
                   Rule
                   When adding a suffix beginning with a vowel (for example: er, ed, est, ing) to words of
                   one syllable, with one short vowel followed by one consonant, double the consonant.
                   For example:             get – getting                shop – shopper

            9. There are doing verbs, being verbs and having verbs.
                   (a) Read Melissa’s first day at school.
                   (b) Underline the verbs and write them in the boxes below.

                                                             Melissa’s first day at school

                             It was Melissa’s first day at Warren Primary School. After school, she walked
                             home by herself. She carefully crossed the road and then, instead of turning
                             left, she turned right. Suddenly she realised that she was hopelessly lost. She
                             sat on a wall and cried. Luckily, an older pupil from her school saw her, and had
                             time to walk her home.

                           Doing verbs                          Being verbs                    Having verbs

                   (c) Most of the verbs in the story are                                    verbs.

            10. Adverbs tell when (time), where (place) or how (manner) something happens and they
                add meaning to verbs.

                   (a) Circle the adverbs in the story above. (The underlined verbs will be helpful.)

                   (b) List the adverbs and write time, place or manner after each. The first one has been
                       done for you.
