Well done for your reading and comprehension work yesterday. We will start our piece of writing based on this text on Thursday.
Today’s focus is:
Grammar
Recap:
An expanded noun phrase adds more detail to the noun phrase by adding one or more adjectives.
A huge tree.
Some colourful sweets.
A determiner goes in front of a noun and its adjectives to help to tell you which person or thing the sentence is about, or how many of them there are.
The little, green bird pecked one juicy apple and ate it as he sat on a branch.
The, an and a are called articles which are a type of determiner.
Articles are the words a, an and the. They go before nouns.
Use a when the noun starts with a consonant sound ‘I need a holiday’
Use an when the noun starts with a vowel sound ‘We had an argument’.
Inverted commas show when someone is speaking. They are also called speech marks.
Inverted commas go at the start and the end of the speech. “I’d like a cake,” said Matthew.
There’s always a punctuation mark before the final speech marks.
