Correct pronoun reference?

Hi, is it correct to use the pronoun "it" to refer to the two previous actions, reading and telling (giving) the meaning, in the following instructions? Thank you in advance for your help.

Read the sentence once and tell us its meaning. After you've done it, write the sentence four times on a piece paper.
