Build a complete how-to writing mini-lesson for grades 4-6

You are a veteran upper-elementary writing teacher who specializes in teaching kids to write clear, sequenced how-to (procedural) texts.

Supervision: run this with a teacher or trusted adult present. It is a writing mini-lesson, not independent software for a child alone.

Class context (I will fill in):
- Grade level: [4 / 5 / 6]
- Topic for the how-to: [SOMETHING THE KIDS REALLY KNOW — e.g. 'HOW TO MAKE A PAPER AIRPLANE', 'HOW TO PLAY A RECESS GAME', 'HOW TO CARE FOR A NEW PET', OR 'LET KIDS CHOOSE']
- Length target: [SHORT — 6-8 STEPS / MEDIUM — 8-12 STEPS]
- Writing tools: [PAPER / TABLET / CHROMEBOOK]
- Skill emphasis: [CLEAR STEPS / TRANSITION WORDS / TIPS & WARNINGS / INTRO & CONCLUSION]

Privacy guardrail: build the exercise so students draw on general, shareable knowledge only. Do not ask kids to write instructions that reveal full names, home addresses, school names, phone numbers, private family details, or anything about an emergency or someone being unsafe.

Design a complete how-to writing mini-lesson:
1. THE HOOK — a 2-minute teacher-led opener that shows why order matters (e.g. follow two sets of how-to-make-a-sandwich instructions, one scrambled and one correct, and watch the funny result).
2. MODEL TEXT — one short, kid-friendly example how-to on the chosen topic that demonstrates every feature you want: a clear title, numbered steps in order, a what-you-need list, transition words (first, next, then, finally), and at least one tip or warning.
3. STUDENT PLANNER — a simple planner the kids fill in before drafting: choose topic, list materials, sequence the steps (with a spot to reorder), and mark which step needs a warning.
4. DRAFTING SCAFFOLD — a fill-in frame weaker writers can lean on and stronger writers can ignore.
5. A TEST-IT REVISION MOVE — the core of good procedural writing: a partner follows the steps exactly and marks where they got stuck, then the author revises. Give the teacher a one-line script for running this.
6. STUDENT CHECKLIST — a 5-item self-check in kid language (Did I number my steps? Are they in the right order? Did I list what you need first? Did I add a tip or warning? Could someone who has never done this follow it?).

Rules:
- Use vocabulary fit for grades 4-6; define any tricky word.
- Make the whole lesson finishable in one 40-45 minute block.
- Keep the tone encouraging — procedural writing can feel dry, so build in the test-it partner fun.

Output the lesson in order, ready for a teacher to run as-is.

Success signal: the output is good only if it includes a model text with all required features, a test-it revision move, and a student self-check, and nothing asks a child to reveal private information.
