Use this Year 3 Using Conjunctions to Express Cause Prior Learning worksheet to assess children's understanding of clauses and expanding sentences before moving onto their new learning of conjunctions to express cause. There are three varied fluency, one reasoning and two application questions to help children to consolidate their understanding. An answer sheet is provided to make marking and misconception checking quicker and easier.

This worksheet could be used as a prior knowledge check before the lesson or with small groups of children who may need a extra support with clauses and conjunctions.
