Description
Aimed at teachers of 5-12 year olds, this book contains a collection of 130 photocopiable activities to develop children's grammatical knowledge. Designed for both Key Stages 1 and 2, the book follows closely the requirements of the English programme of study, but is also relevant to the primary curricula of Scotland and Northern Ireland. Teacher's notes at the front of the book explain the relevance of each activity and suggest possible extension ideas. The book covers the following areas: how language works; parts of speech; punctuation; syntax and sentence structure; standard English and audience awareness; word origins; direct and indirect speech; conversations; using a thesaurus and dictionary to find meaning; figures of speech and poetic language.
