This Year 5 Direct and Indirect Speech Application and Reasoning resource challenges children to punctuate direct speech correctly and recognise the differences between direct and indirect speech. The questions are differentiated to make it easier for you to pitch them at the right level for everyone in your class. Use in class, as homework, or as an intervention; 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!"]
