Y3 Grammar Punctuation and Spelling
Using Conjunctions to Express Time, Place and Cause Lesson
This Year 3 Using Conjunctions to Express Time, Place and Cause lesson covers the prior learning of coordinating and subordination conjunctions before moving onto the main skill of using conjunctions to express time, place and cause.
The lesson starts with a prior learning activity to check pupils’ understanding. If they need more practice, you can choose other resources for that step. The interactive lesson slides recap the prior learning before moving on to the main skill. Children can then practise further by completing the activities and can extend their learning with engaging reasoning and application tasks.
