MIND MAPS

How to make a mind map in a few steps
1) start from the centre and work out; if necessary, create sub-centers for sub-themes
2) use arrows and other visual aids
3) put ideas down as they occur, wherever they fit best
4) use only key words, don't put down sentences
5) use colours, but don't overdo
6) be creative

And remember, there are no such things as wrong mindmaps:)

There are several on-line tools for making mind maps. Most of them require the below steps

GRAMMAR LOG

Instructions, requests

When you want someone to do something, we use an instruction or a request. Requests are more polite than instructions. It is very important to use the right construction when you are speaking to someone, otherwise you will seem rude.

Instructions
An instruction is always in the infinitive without ‘to,’ the subject of an instruction is always ‘You,’ but mostly it is understood, not spoken. Sometimes a name is used in front of it or behind to show who the instruction is given to.
Example:

"Tone, (you) do your homework."
"Be quiet, Anna."

Use. Orders are often given by important people and demand obedience. Instructions are given by people showing how to do something.
We usually use written instructions, like this one:
Example:

"Click the below button." (On web pages)

Requests
Requests are questions, so they use the grammar of questions and the sentence finishes with a question mark. When the person makes the request and wants someone to do something, it is polite to ask if they are able to do it. For making requests modals of ability are often used.
Example:

"Can you pass me some bread, please.?"
"May I have some bread?"
