1. INSTRUCTIONS

2. EXAMPLE: 1
As it can be seen in the example, the instruction is clear
and correct. It consists of just two sentences, and it
includes example, so students can understand easily
what should they do. In addition to this, instruction is
suitable in terms of students’ level. (intermediate)

3. EXAMPLE 2:
In this example, instruction is short and not clear. It said that
read and listen to the breakfast conversation. Whether any
responsibility is given to the students or not is uncertain. In
other words, after reading and listening “what student should
do “ is unknown. If there isn’t any responsibility for student
rather from reading and listening, it isn’t suitable for students’
level.

4. EXAMPLE:3
In this example, instruction is clear, but it is a bit long, it is
more than two sentences , so this is a disadvantage for
students. There is unnecessary information. On the other
hand, students can understand the instruction easily.
Furthermore , the instruction is supported by example.

5. EXAMPLE 4:
In this example, the instruction isn’t good. It includes
unnecessary information. For example, the explanation of
The Seven Wonders of the World is redundant. Students
have already known The Seven Wonders of the World . I
think, the instruction should be given in this example as:
“match each picture in the box with its name”

6. EXAMPLE 5:
In this example, the instruction is too long, and it gives so
many tasks to the students. On the other hand, the instruction
is clear and understandable. Furtermore, this is a writing
activity , so students can understand their task easily.

7. EXAMPLE 6:

means of clear instruction. It is a bit long but this is listening and
speaking activities, so the instruction can include much more
question or information.

9. EXAMPLE 8:
In this example, the instruction is perfect and clear. It isn’t too
long. The instruction is given shortly but in understandable
way, so this help student’ comprehension. In addition to this,
the example also makes the instruction much more
comprehensible.

10. EXAMPLE 9:

determined then the instruction tells us that what should be

underlined, so this engage student’s attention.
