Instruction Writing Practice
The exercises on this page give you dense source material and a target format. Your job is to produce numbered steps a real person can follow — not to rewrite the paragraph.
What you practice
- Identifying the steps hidden in prose
- Ordering steps the way the work is actually done
- Removing everything that isn't a step
- Choosing action verbs over abstract nouns
- Adding a warning when the reader needs one
