This Year 6 Subjunctive Form in Formal Speech and Writing Teaching PPT explores the complexities of the subjunctive form and how we use this to create a tone in writing. Using a range of examples, the teaching sequence begins by looking at what the subjunctive form is and how it is used. The teaching then moves on to look at how verbs are impacted by the subjunctive form, again with examples for support.

This teaching PowerPoint is an excellent resource to use with your whole class to introduce suing the subjunctive form. It could however, also be used as part of group work or interventions.

Curriculum Objectives

  • Develop their understanding of the concepts set out in English appendix 2 by: Recognising vocabulary and structures that is appropriate for formal speech and writing, including subjunctive forms
  • The difference between vocabulary typical of informal speech and vocabulary appropriate for formal speech and writing [for example, find out – discover; ask for – request; go in – enter]
  • The difference between structures typical of informal speech and structures appropriate for formal speech and writing [for example, the use of question tags: He’s your friend, isn’t he?, or the use of subjunctive forms such as If I were or Were they to come in some very formal writing and speech]
