Worksheet
An image of the Parenthesis Application Resource


This Year 6 Parenthesis Application worksheet challenges children to use parenthesis to describe the rolling hills of a farm. The worksheet provides prompts for things to think about, such as, what they can see and hear, and it encourages them to think carefully about their punctuation.

This extended piece of writing can be used as an assessment tool after your children have learnt about Parenthesis. A model answer has been provided which can be used to guide your marking, or it could be used as a model text for children to analyse the layout of a letter and the use of parenthesis.
