📘 Lesson Intro: Suggest Appropriate Revisions (Using the “Easy Circuit” as the Text)

Today, you’ll practice a real-life writing skill: suggesting appropriate revisions. That means you will read a short set of directions and improve them so they are clearer, safer, and easier to follow—without changing the main idea.

We’ll use a fitness routine called the “Easy Circuit.” Your job is to act like an editor and ask:

  • Is anything confusing?

  • Are the steps in a good order?

  • Are the instructions specific (time, rest, repeats)?

  • Is it safe and age-appropriate?

  • Are the words simple and helpful?

By the end, you’ll be able to suggest revisions like:

  • adding missing details (example: “Repeat 2–3 rounds” → when to do 2 vs 3)

  • replacing unclear words with clearer ones

  • making directions more organized and easy to follow

Quick Warm-Up Question:
