English - Grammar and Punctuation
22 Nov 2015
For Grammar and Punctuation we worked through a variety of card games.
This was partner work.
There were clues on each card. We had to guess what the word was. eg. You can eat ice-cream and soup with it....spoon.
We also had to punctuate sentences with speech correctly.
Punctuate the sentences correctly. Fill in the missing Capital . , ! ? " " '
Here is a group of letters. We had to put the letters in the correct order to make up a word. eg. e s a c p = space
Here we had to choose 2 words out of 6 words to make up a compound word... eg. class+room=classroom
Here we practiced our similes eg. ...as red as...blood
There is a sentence on each card. We needed to identify the verbs, nouns, adjectives and adverbs in each sentence.
There are 2 unrelated pictures on each card. We used both of these words in a sentence. eg. plant glass
Match 1 word to 2 separate words to make up 2 new words that still make sense eg. every thing body everything and everybody
Take one letter from each word to make up a new word. meat mate take away the e now the word is mat
Here is a group of letters. We had to put the letters in the correct order to make up a word. These examples are a bit more difficult than the other set. eg. a h m t m t c n e a i i a mathematician
We had to choose any 6 pictures. We wrote sentences using these 6 pictures. eg sun girl swim beach morning happy - The beautiful girl went to the busy beach in the morning. She was very excited because the sun was beaming and she was allowed to swim in the water until lunchtime.
This was a fun way to learn and practice grammar and puntuation.
