Those that are accomplished time-tellers could even include a small image of a clock or note of the time in each frame, not necessarily to mention in their writing, but as a reminder of when things happened.
Anyone who has put together flatpack furniture or a plastic brick construction kit will know that many instruction leaflets are effectively storyboards these days. Of course, we expect pupils to be able to write numbered instructions using imperative verbs et cetera , but these commercial examples do offer a telling insight into the power of images for helping us to follow a method.
Getting your pupils to plan their instructions using a storyboard would help them see clearly that they have considered and covered every step of the process. One of the possible pitfalls of a frame-by-frame approach to composition is that it could possibly lead to writing that feels disjointed. Turn this to your advantage by using it as an exercise in cohesive devices.
Of course, you could spend time creating your own plan for how to create links between and within paragraphs. Alternatively, you could use our KS2 Grammar Burst resource on identifying and employing cohesive devices, building to an extended writing task that applies this learning in context.
Any good storyboard or comic strip will be able to handle changes in perspective. For example, a distant image or a medium view might change to a close up of a character in order to highlight an emotion.
As we know, paragraphs change when there is a shift in time, place or topic and this is sometimes compared to a film-maker using a different camera angle.
In a similar way, pupils could be encouraged to use storyboards to remind them when and why to start a new paragraph. Quite apart from all the benefits of using storyboards as a planning tool, they do also have their place in creating finished pieces using a comic strip format.
In fact, they can be particularly good at telling a story or describing a process in subjects such as history or geography where clear illustrations can complement crafted text very effectively. Before we go, a little reminder to reassure those who are not confident about their artistic ability: storyboards are not about being great at drawing. For most applications, simple line drawings, probably involving stick people with emoji-style faces, will be enough.
The true craft comes in creating a coherent and well-ordered composition. Get the picture?
