Y5 Grammar Punctuation and Spelling
Adverbials Lesson
This lesson covers the prior learning of fronted adverbials in paragraphs before moving onto the main skill of using parenthesis to add clarity and build cohesion in writing.
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.
National Curriculum Objective:
English Year 5: Devices to build cohesion within a paragraph [for example, then, after that, this, firstly]
English Year 5: Link ideas across paragraphs using adverbials of time [for example, later], place [for example, nearby] and number [for example, secondly] or tense choices [for example, he had seen her before]
