What is a Sentence? Lesson
This What is a Sentence? lesson covers the prior learning of recognising sentences before moving onto the main skill of creating complete sentences.
The lesson starts with a prior learning activity to check pupils’ understanding. The interactive lesson slides recap the prior learning before moving on to the main skill.
