Question

I followed Tyler's instructions on how to tie shoes. The instructions were mostly clear, except for the part about making a "bunny ear" with the lace. What if someone doesn't know what that means?

Create one post for the following prompt.
Create a set of oral instructions so another student can follow the procedure and give you feedback. Appropriate topics are simple tasks that can be completed at home or school without any special equipment or items. Post your instructions.

Answer 1

1. Tighten the laces of your shoes. Stretch them out and make sure that the tightness of your shoes is comfortable for you.

2. Intersect the laces at their middle, one on top of the other.

3. Bend the top lace down into the small triangle the overlapped laces have formed. Pull the top lace through.

4. Grab the edges of the laces and pull them. Make sure that the tightness of your shoes is comfortable for you. This creates a knot.

5. Take one lace. Bend it at one-third (1/3) the distance from the plastic end to the part at the knot. This should create a teardrop shape.

6. Repeat step 5 with the other lace.

7. Still holding on to the teardrop-shaped laces, overlap them.

8. Bend the top teardrop down into the small triangle the overlapped laces have formed. Pull the top lace through.

9. Grab the edges of the laces and pull them. Make sure that the tightness of your shoes is comfortable for you. This creates a knot.

10. Repeat steps 8 and 9 for a more sturdy knot.

Hope this helped!
