Direct and Indirect Speech Application

Worksheet
An image of the Direct and Indirect Speech Application Resource


With this Year 5 Direct and Indirect Speech Application resource, children have the opportunity to write freely based on an image. The resource challenges your class to write a conversation that might be happening in the picture, encouraging them to use both direct and indirect speech, as well as to punctuate correctly.

This resource is great for use after our other worksheets for this lesson, which help children master the skills needed. Use in class, as an intervention, or at home; the choice is yours!


Curriculum Objectives

  • Indicate grammatical and other features by: Using and punctuating direct speech / Use of inverted commas and other punctuation to indicate direct speech [for example, a comma after the reporting clause; end punctuation within inverted commas: The conductor shouted, "Sit down!"]
