Today's Lesson

Spelling

Take the spelling test by asking your student to write the words they have been learning this week.

Main Activity

Recap with your student on the learning they have done on sentence openers and conjunctions by checking:

  • Can they write a sentence which starts with an -ing verb?
  • Can they write a sentence which starts with a preposition?
  • Can they write a simple sentence?
  • Can they write a compound sentence?
  • Can they write a complex sentence?

Make a note of what they are doing well with, and what they need to go over and practise again.

Use the rest of today’s lesson to revisit skills that need practice.

Grammar check

Turn to page 54 in Nelson Grammar Pupil Book 3. Work through the information in the purple box at the top of the page.

Ask your student to complete ‘Focus’, ‘Practice’ and ‘Extension’ on pages 54 and 55.
