SPaG
Activity Booklet
For Parents

This year 2 activity booklet has been created to help your child practise some of the key skills that they
have learnt in school during key stage 1. The national curriculum subjects of English and maths have been
split among the different booklets (for example, SPaG, number, shape and reading). These booklets include
clear explanations, examples and activities for your child to try at home in order to help them develop their
confidence and understanding of each area.

Properties
Properites of 2D Shapes

A 2D shape is any shape that is flat. It can only be measured in two dimensions,
such as height and width, but not in a third dimension of depth or thickness.
You will probably recognise and use the more common, regular 2D shapes.

Phonics
Phonics is made up of a series of letters that form the many different
sounds in the English language. When learning phonics, you will learn how
the different combinations of letters look and sound, blend them together
to read words and recognise the letters that look different but have the
same sound.
All this makes phonics really useful, not only for learning how to read
fluently, but also how to spell words.

You can use the phonics sounds as a way of spelling some words.
By understanding what the different sounds (phonemes) look like
(graphemes), you can use this information to work out how words
are spelt.

For example, the word beard is formed of the sounds -

b ear d

By knowing that the sounds appear as they do, you can combine them
to spell the word - beard.

When you use phonics to help you spell words, you have to be careful…
Some sounds have numerous ways of spelling them!

ai ay a-e

In these examples, all the words contain the same sound, but that sound is
spelt in a different way for each word.

ee ea ey e-e y

You have to think carefully about these alternative spellings of sounds


when using phonics to help you spell words.

A) Alternative Spellings
Use the picture and grapheme to decide what the word may be. Use the
information to attempt to spell each word.

Parent Tip Help your child to practise recognising sounds in words all around them. Give them a sound (e.g. the long 'a' sound) then see if they can spot
any words in the room that contain that sound (e.g. if they are in the garden - snail, acorn, basin, gate, spade).

Page 11 of 116
High Frequency and
Common Exception Words
High frequency words are the words that appear the most in our writing.
They are often words that don’t really have much meaning on their own,
but add flow and meaning to the sentences they are used in.
As these words are the most common you will use in writing, it is
important to learn how to spell these words and be able to write them
fluently and accurately.

Common exception words are words that do not follow the common
phonetic spelling rules you will learn in year 1 and 2.
They are words that occur regularly in writing and used often, which
means learning to spell them is very important.

the words contain the same string of letters – for example door, floor and
poor? Group the words into families with the same letter string and put
them into these houses:

door
floor
poor

Full Stops

Full stops can be used in a variety of different ways in writing. You will
most often use full stops to end a sentence. They are used to show the
reader when a sentence has finished and the next one will begin.

Without full stops to end sentences, writing often doesn’t make sense.
I went to the rugby on Saturday the weather was sunny
Without using full stops, it is difficult to get the proper meaning from this
text. Did the person go to the rugby on Saturday? Or was the weather
sunny on Saturday? Or was it both?

I went to the rugby on Saturday. The weather was sunny.


I went to the rugby. On Saturday, the weather was sunny.

Full stops can also be used in abbreviations (shortened forms of


words or phrases).
Sun. = Sunday
e.g. = for example

Another place you will see full stops will be on the Internet, in
website addresses and in email addresses.

www.twinkl.co.uk
A) Spot the Full Stops
Can you spot where the full stops should be in these sentences?
My favourite food is cheese I love it melted
My room was a mess My mum told me to tidy it up
I fed my dog after school He had chicken

B) Full Stop Alien Postcard


Luvakass the alien has visited Earth. He is writing a postcard to his family
at home on the planet Inko. He needs your help to check his postcard for
missing capital letters and full stops.

Mum and Dad

people drive around in metal boxes

food is eaten by putting it in your face

water falls out of the sky a lot

i miss you all

love from luvakass

Page 22 of 116 visit twinkl.com


C) Identify the Full Stop Errors
Read the sentences below. Can you spot the full stops and capital letters that
are in the wrong places? Rewrite the sentences with the capital letters and
full stops in the correct places.

1. chris Found his Wallet in. the drawer





2. soup is A. healthy Kind of food





3. grown-ups Teach us at. school





4. snow and Rain are part of. our winter weather





The most common way your child will use full stops is to end a sentence. Get your child to act out sentences,
using actions and hand movements, then do a fist action to show a full stop at the end.

Page 23 of 116 visit twinkl.com


Capital Letters

Capital letters are upper-case letters. They are larger than lower-case
letters and are only used at certain times in sentences.
You need to use capital letters at the beginning of sentences. Full stops tell
the reader when a sentence ends and capital letters start the next sentence.

Not only can capital letters be used at the beginning of sentences, but
they can also be used for proper nouns. This includes the names of
people, places, companies, days of the week and months of the year.
Capital letters are also used for the pronoun I (e.g. I went to
the shops).

Challenge!
Finish this sentence. Remember: Capital letters for names.
My teacher is called -------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------

Page 33 of 116 visit twinkl.com


B) Spot the Capital Letter Mistakes
The following sentences are missing any capital letters or full stops. Can
you rewrite the sentence and add the correct punctuation?

1. my brother’s dog is called tess




2. on sunday she went to the park




3. the titanic sank in 1912




4. toby and mark are going to spain in march




5. martha took her children to the zoo yesterday




To help your child get used to recognising which capital letters correspond to which lower-case letters,
try playing flashcard style games, where you show your child an upper-case letter, then they write the
matching lower-case letter.

Page 34 of 116 visit twinkl.com


C) Capital Letter and Full Stop Rewrite

On the Farm
Read the piece of writing below. Think about when a sentence ends
and when a new one begins. Write the sentences out yourself, adding
in any full stops and capital letters.
I will soon visit my nan at her farm nell and her sister may join me
she will let us feed the hens she has goats and cows as well as hens it
is fun on the farm

At the River
Read the piece of writing below. Think about when a sentence ends
and when a new one begins. Write the sentences out yourself, adding
in any full stops and capital letters that are needed. Can you add
your own sentences about something else that is happening at
the river?
max and vikram sail a wooden boat jeff chucks bits of a bun in the
river for the ducks yasmin sits on a rock and looks for fish bill and
bob see an eel ken the dog sits down in the mud and gets in a mess.

Apostrophes
Apostrophes are a type of punctuation.
They are mainly used for two different purposes - for omission or
possession. Omission means they can show when we miss letters to
shorten a phrase. Possession means they can show when one thing
belongs to another.

Some phrases can be shortened into a word by removing a letter and


combining the remaining parts with an apostrophe.
These are called contractions. When we do this, we use an apostrophe
to replace the missing letter.
The children are not coming to the party.

In this sentence, the words ‘are not’ can be shortened using an


apostrophe.

An apostrophe replaces the


You begin by removing the o.
missing letter and what remains
= are n t is joined into a word.
= aren’t

Page 36 of 116 visit twinkl.com


Another way that you can use apostrophes is to show when one thing
belongs to another.
We call this using apostrophes for possession.

Kai is looking at the hoop that belongs to Isla.


Kai is looking at Isla’s hoop.

I ate a big slice of cake that belongs to Ali.


I ate a big slice of Ali’s cake.

Chloe got paint in the hair that belongs to Luna.


Chloe got paint in Luna’s hair.

In all these examples, the apostrophe and ‘s’ are added to the name of
the person who owns the thing.
The hoop is Isla’s, the cake is Ali’s and the hair is Luna’s. These
apostrophes show who owns each object.

Page 37 of 116 visit twinkl.com


A) Matching Contractions
Match the contraction and apostrophe to the correct pair of words.

do not did not

it will she will

he will will not

can not has not

didn't it'll hasn't can't

she'll won't he'll dont't

B) Possessive Apostrophe Word Search
Can you locate the words that contain possessive apostrophes?

C) Possessive Apostrophe Pirates
These two characters are wanted by the police. Can you write a
description of them for the police using at least three possessive
apostrophes for each character? E.g. The girl’s hair is long and wavy.

Help your child to recognise the words that they can form contractions with by practising naming them
and spotting the words that form them. For example, ask your child to say which words make up can’t,
where’s or I’m.

Page 40 of 116 visit twinkl.com


Questions Marks

A question mark is a piece of punctuation. It is a type of full stop that is


used to end a question sentence. When a direct question is asked, you need
to end the sentence with a question mark.

Where are you going?


How is the preparation going?
What is happening?

To help you identify if a question is being asked, keep an eye out for
question words. These words are function words that can be used to
ask questions.

Where is the pencil?


What is that sound?
How are you feeling?

Be careful - not all sentences that contain these words are question
sentences.

He didn’t know where he was going.

Question marks are used when a direct question is asked.
A) Question Mark or Full Stop
Decide if the sentence is a question or not. Put a question mark or full
stop in the box to finish the sentence.

1. Would you like a slice of cake

2. Can I play with you

3. What is Farhan doing

4. Mum is cooking dinner

B) Question or Command
Use your understanding of question marks to decide if each of these
sentences is a question or command. Then, decide which piece of
punctuation should end each sentence.

1. Use ‘Q’ and ‘C’ to show whether these sentences are questions or
commands. Add in the missing punctuation to help you.
a) Does milk come from cows __
b) Turn up the volume __
c) Why don’t you get some sleep __
d) Shall we get some chips __
e) Don’t speak to your mother like that __

To get your child used to recognising questions, get them to pose three questions. Ask them to think about
their day. Can they think of three questions about what has happened during the day? Remember to
remind them that each question needs a question mark.

2. Circle the best punctuation mark to finish these sentences.

a) Wipe your nose now . ! ?


b) Would you like some water . ! ?
c) Pass to me if you can . ! ?
d) Don’t shoot . ! ?
e) Is it far to go . ! ?

Commas in a List

A comma separates units of meaning in a sentence.

A comma separates items in a list.

Jenna bought some apples, grapes, bananas and pears for


her fruit salad.

Commas are an item of punctuation.


They can be used to provide a pause, or breath, in a list. When you write
a list of things, rather than putting one word continuously after the other,
you can break the list up using commas.
Remember, lists are not always objects. You can write a list of feelings,
thoughts or even adjectives.

When you write a sentence that contains a list, commas can make the
items clearer and separate from each other.

Simon bought a banana apple pear and orange from the shop.

In this sentence, there is a list of items that Simon has bought. You can
separate these items using commas. Place the first comma after the first
item in the list. Then, add a comma after each item in the list until you
reach the word ‘and’. You do not need to add a comma at this part of
the list because the word ‘and’ replaces the last comma.

Simon bought a banana, apple, pear and orange from the shop.

Interjections are words that can be used on their own, with an exclamation mark, to express sudden emotions
(such as joy, excitement or surprise). These words form sentences of their own. Get your child to practise
using these words in spoken sentences. E.g. Wow! Stop! Hooray! Help!

Contractions
Contractions are shortened forms of words and phrases. When you combine
a set pair of words together, remove letters, then recombine what is left
with an apostrophe, this is a contraction.

Contraction for she will Contraction for who is

she ’ll who ’s

Contraction for they are Contraction for Should have

they ’re should ’ve


In these examples, you can see the words and phrases have been
shortened using an apostrophe.
The first word in the pair doesn’t change. One or more letters are removed
from the second word in the pair and the two pieces are joined, with an
apostrophe replacing the missing letters. This then forms a new, shortened
form of the word - a contraction.

Page 56 of 116 visit twinkl.com


Not all pairs of words can be shortened to form contractions.
Generally, in English, the following verbs can be used to form contractions:

• be • have
• will • had
• would

These verbs are combined with the following pronouns or adverbs to form
contractions:

•I • we • where
• you • they • when
• he • that • why
• she • who • how
• it • what

Contractions can also be formed by negating a verb (adding not):

• is not
• are not
• was not
• do not
• could not
• etc…

A) Match the Contraction
Can you spot the correct contraction for each pair of words and draw a line
to join them together? Some are not the correct contraction.

B) Identify the Parts of the Contraction
Which pairs of words form these contractions?

can’t

didn’t

hasn’t

haven’t

mustn’t

C) Which Contraction?
Use your understanding of contractions to fill in the missing information.

1. did + not =

2.  + not = couldn’t

3. have + not =

4. + not = can’t

5. + will = he’ll

6. + would = I’d

7. should + have =

8. should + not =

Use sticky notes to write the two words that make a contraction. Get your child to practise overlaying the
words and using an apostrophe to see how the words change to form a contraction. This will act as a visual
aid for your child.

Conjunctions
Conjunctions are words that are used to link clauses, ideas, sentences and
words together and create cohesion within your writing.
They join together sentences and ideas, helping you to build more
complex sentences, rather than just using simple sentences.

and but when that

because if or

The two main types of conjunctions that you will use are coordinating and
subordinating conjunctions.
Coordinating conjunctions are used to join or link words, phrases or
clauses together. One thing is linked to another.

Subordinating conjunctions can be used at the beginning or middle


of a sentence to join two phrases or clauses together. When using a
subordinating conjunction, one part of the phrase or clause depends on
the other part.
One thing happens because of another thing.
One thing happens when another thing happens.
One thing happens if another thing happens.

these sentences.

I have never liked heights so I didn’t go to the top.

Make a sandwich, unless you’re eating out.

He still shouted at me and I cried.

Whether you like it or not, I’m going to the cinema.

They were going to build a road, but people didn’t want them to.

I’ll do it because I’m going there anyway.

Try playing ‘tell me more’ with your child. This works by asking your child about something, then when they
respond, ask them to tell you more. They then use conjunctions to add further detail to the sentence.

E.g. What is that bird doing?


It’s singing.
Tell me more.
It’s singing and shaking its wings.
Tell me more.
It’s singing and shaking its wings because it wants to find another bird.

Adjectives
Adjectives are describing words. They tell the reader more about things or
places (nouns).
• Adjectives can describe all sorts of things. They can tell you about
what something looks like, feels like or how it behaves.
• They are used to add more detail and description to sentences.

You can use adjectives in sentences to create expanded noun phrases.


Expanded noun phrases add descriptive detail and specific
information by adding adjectives.

Verbs and Adverbs of How
Verbs are action words. They are doing words. They tell the reader what
is being done.
When a character, person or thing is doing something, the name of that
action is called a verb.

bounce carry jump leap

collapse crawl live pull

dance dash sneak spin

An adverb describes a verb. It adds further detail and information to an


action. At this stage, the adverbs you are most likely to use are adverbs of
how. These adverbs tell you how an action is being carried out.

angrily anxiously doubtfully elegantly

quickly sadly cautiously cheerfully

enthusiastically foolishly safely shyly

You can combine verbs and adverbs in sentences in a variety of


different ways.
• The adverb can come immediately after the verb:
The cat ran quickly through the grass.
• It can also come at the end of the sentence, after you have
described the action: The cat ran through the grass quickly.

Nouns
Nouns name things. Their job is to make sure that people, places, things,
feelings and animals have a name.

There are different types of nouns.


Abstract nouns name feelings, thoughts and ideas. They are called
abstract because they are the name of things that don’t have a
physical presence (you can’t see or touch them).
Collective nouns name groups of things. They tell you what a
collection or group of objects, things, animals or people are called.
Concrete nouns give you specific names of things, objects
and animals.
Compound nouns are combinations of nouns that form a new noun.
Two names of things are combined to create a name of something
else. For example, paper + work = paperwork.
Pronouns are words that are used to refer to people directly in
the sentence or people or things mentioned somewhere else in the
sentence.
Proper nouns are names of specific, individual people, places, days,
months and objects.

C) Noun or Verb
Some words can be used as nouns or verbs.

The word ‘point’ can be both a noun and verb.


To use ‘point’ as a noun, put a determiner like ‘a’, ‘an’ or ‘the’
before it,
e.g. Henry sharpened his pencil to a point. (noun)
To use ‘point’ as a verb, put the word ‘to’ before it,
e.g. The little girl started to point out of the coach window. (verb)

1. Read these sentences. Is the underlined word being used as a noun


or a verb?

a) Gemma wrote the email and pressed ‘send’. Standing


by the computer, Adam waited for his friend to email him.

b) Every time he told a joke, Amina’s dad giggled to himself.


Isabelle liked to joke with her friends.

c) Abigail quickly ate some breakfast – she knew she would need to
race to school so she wasn’t late. Jumping as fast as
he could, Daniel won the race.

Page 84 of 116 visit twinkl.com


2. Now it’s your turn. Use these words in two different sentences: one
where the word is used as a noun and one where it is used as a verb.

a) Write a sentence using the word ‘smile’ as a verb.

Write a sentence using the word ‘smile’ as a noun.

Help your child identify the different types of nouns by asking them to tell you which type of noun
a word is. For example, if you see a sign while out and about, ask them which type of noun ‘sign’
is (sign = concrete noun).

Prefixes
Prefixes are groups of letters that can be added to words to change their
meaning. By adding these letters, you can make words mean completely
different things.
For example, the prefix ‘un’ means not. So, the word ‘tie’ means to tie
something, whereas ‘untie’ means to not tie, or undo a tie.
The prefix ‘mis’ means wrong. So, the word ‘spell’ means to use the correct
letters to spell a word, whereas ‘misspell’ means spelling a word incorrectly.

Below are some prefixes, along with their meanings and some
examples of words using them.

un (not) dis (not/no) il (not) ir (not)


untie disappear illegal irregular
unhappy disobey illegible irresponsible
unload disagree illogical irrelevant
unfair dishonest illiterate irreplaceable
in (no/not/non) disappoint im (no/not/non) irresistible
inactive mis (wrong) immature re (again/back)
incorrect misspell impossible refill
incomplete misbehave impatient redo
invisible misread imperfect rewrite
misheard immortal reinvent
mislead

A prefix is added to the beginning of a word to make a new word.


You can use the prefix to work out what words mean.

superhuman = super + human


The prefix ‘super’ means better quality or exceptional.
So, ‘superhuman’ is a better quality or exceptional human.

autopilot →= auto + pilot


The prefix ‘auto’ means self or same.
So, ‘autopilot’ means a self-controlling pilot.

A) Sorting Prefixes
Choose the correct prefix for each word, then write the words in the correct box.

‘dis’ prefix words

frozen
fasten
obey
happily
beaten
obedient
‘un’ prefix words
agree
beatable
covered
loyal

Page 88 of 116 visit twinkl.com


B) Adding Prefixes
Look at the words below. Write a prefix in the space to create a new word.
There may be more than one prefix that could work. For example, port +
re = report.
1. port

2. claim

3. dote

4. calculate

5. fiction

6. behave

7. terior

8. writer

9. clockwise

10. place

Page 89 of 116 visit twinkl.com


C) Using Prefixes
Can you use the information about each prefix to think of three more examples
of words that use them?

Write down 3 more examples


prefix meaning example
of words with this prefix

re to do again return

bi two bicycle

dis not dislike

mis wrong misbehave

pre before prehistoric

over too much overcook

un not unhappy

Get your child to practise understanding what prefixes mean by playing the definitions game. Take it
in turns with your child to give a definition of a word that uses a prefix. For example, ‘Have a different
opinion to each other’ or ‘Do not agree with someone else’ = disagree.

Page 90 of 116 visit twinkl.com


Suffixes
Suffixes are groups of letters that can be added to the end of words to
change their meaning.
Each suffix has a meaning, which contributes to what the new word means.

For example, ‘ful’ means to be full of or filled with. So, ‘joyful’ means
to be full of joy.
The suffix ‘ness’ means a state of something. So, ‘sadness’ means to
be in a state of feeling sad.

When adding suffixes, you may need to use a range of different


spelling rules.
• For example, when adding ‘ing’ to a word that ends in
‘e’, you remove the ‘e’ before adding the ‘ing’.
• When adding 'ed' to a word with a short vowel sound ending in
just one consonant, you double the consonant and then add the
'ed' - for example, 'slip' becomes 'slipped', but 'trick' just becomes
'tricked' because it has two consonants at the end of the word.

When adding suffixes that begin with a consonant, you generally just add
the suffix straight to the root word without making any changes. The main
exceptions to this rule are the word ‘argue’, which becomes argument and
root words ending in ‘y’ with a consonant before it.
For example:

merry → merriment happy → happiness

plenty → plentiful

C) Adding Suffixes
Choose one of the suffixes below to add to each root word. Remember to use
spelling rules to make sure that the words are spelt correctly.

-ing -ly -ness


Spelling Rules
Do you need to just add the suffix, drop the ‘e’, change the ‘y’ into an ‘i’
or double the final consonant?

Root Word Suffix Spelling Rule to Remember Final Word


chase -ing drop the ‘e’ chasing
follow
weep
sad
bright

Get your child to create suffix word families. Choose a suffix and ask your child to think of as many words
as possible that end in that suffix. As they come across more of them in day-to-day life, add them to the
different families.

Past and Present Tense
Simple past and present tense is all about when something happens. The
tense that sentences are written in tells the reader if the action has already
happened (past tense) or is happening now (present tense).
When you are using simple past and present tense, most of the time you
will use verbs to alter the tense of sentences.

Verbs can be altered to make them past or present tense.

Present Tense Past Tense

jump jumped

grab grabbed

I jump through the hoop. = present tense (happening now)


I jumped through the hoop. = past tense (already happened)
I grab the piece of paper. = present tense (happening now)
I grabbed the piece of paper. = past tense (already happened)

Page 101 of 116 visit twinkl.com


think save

grab explore

thought saved

grabbed explored

Be careful. Some past tense verbs work slightly differently when it


comes to spelling them and some past tense verbs are actually different
versions of the word altogether.

Progressive tense describes actions that are continuing, in progress or
lasting a length of time. We are going to focus on two forms of progressive
tense - past and present.

Past progressive tense tells the reader about events that happened in
the past but that lasted for a longer duration of time.

I was reading.

In this example, the word ‘was’ tells you this action happened in the
past, but the reading lasted for a longer spell of time.

Other examples of past progressive include…

He was wondering what was happening.


I was lying on the bed while I was watching TV.

Present progressive tense tells the reader about events that are
happening now and are ongoing and in progress.
Examples of present progressive tense include…

Maria is listening to the news.


We are acting out a story.

Simple Present and Past Tense / Progressive Present and Past Tense
The present tense tells us something that is true at this point in time. The present progressive tense describes
an action that is currently in progress. The past tense tells us about something that finished in the past. The
past progressive tense describes an action that was in progress in the past. The verbs in a sentence tell us
the tense it is written in. Sometimes when a suffix is added, the root word changes.

Choose the words which will complete these sentences in the present
progressive tense.

1. E.g. She is sweeping the floor.

2. He _____ _______________ the leaves.

3. They _____ _______________ on the bed.

4. They _____ _______________ a book.

5. He _____ _______________ some milk.

One way for your child to practise their use of tenses is through spoken language. Encourage them to describe
what they are doing during the day. Can they describe what they are doing now and what they have already
done? For example, “I am peeling an orange. I brushed my teeth this morning. I was dancing in the puddles.
I am watching TV.”

Statement, Command,
Exclamation or Question
Sentences can be split up into a variety of different types.
The four overall types are statements, commands, questions and
exclamations.
Statements tell the reader something. They end with a full stop and give a
piece of information.
Commands tell someone to do something. They are regularly found in
instructions or recipes and often contain imperative (bossy) verbs.
Questions ask something. They end with a question mark.
Exclamations are sentences that begin with ‘what’ or ‘how’ and end in
an exclamation mark. They usually show surprise, anger or other strong
emotions.

Statements Commands

which tell you something. something. They are found in instructions but can

Questions Exclamations
Questions are sentences that ask An exclamation is a sentence beginning with
you something. They usually end ‘What’ or ‘How’. It is a full sentence, including a
with a question mark. verb, which ends with an exclamation mark.

What did you have for dinner? What a dangerous mountain to climb!
Look at the text below and underline each type of sentence in a
different colour.

One warm, sunny􀀂 day Jessica and Lilly􀀂 went to play at the park.
When they arrived there were lots of people at the park.

“What a lot of people there are today“ cried Jessica.

“None of the swings are free for me to go on “ said Lilly,


sounding upset.

“Would 􀀂you like to go on the slide instead “ asked Jessica.

Highlight the statements in blue, the questions in green, the commands


in red and the exclamations in yellow.

Questions
asked Jessica.

“What a lot of people there are today“ cried Jessica.


Exclamations “None of the swings are free for me to go on “ said Lilly,
sounding upset.

In these examples, there are no commands.


Some of the examples are missing pieces of punctuation. Can you add any
missing punctuation to the above examples?

Page 113 of 116 visit twinkl.com


A) Question Conversion
Can you turn these statement sentences into question sentences
by adding punctuation, rearranging words or adding new words?

For example: The lion is vicious. Is the lion vicious?

Giraffes have long necks so that


they can reach tall trees.

Zebras have stripes to help them


to camouflaged.

African elephants have ears


shaped like Africa.

To help your child to practise spotting question sentences, begin by checking if the sentence begins with a
‘wh’ word, such as ‘what’, ‘why’, ‘when’, ‘which’, ‘who’, etc. These words are all question-leading words
and most sentences that begin with one of these words will probably be a question. Not all will though!

B) Sentence Reshuffle
Use the words to create sentences that are either statements,
commands, questions or exclamations.

Use only the words in Use only the words in

C) Statement and Exclamation Story Practice
Practice what you have learned about statements and exclamations by
writing a short story which contains both. Imagine a situation where you
are out walking in the hills with your family when suddenly a huge rock
begins rolling down the slope towards you. Read the example below to give
you an idea of what your writing might sound like. When you have finished
your piece of writing, underline the statements in green and circle the
exclamations in red.

I heard a noise and looked up


to see something moving on the
hillside. What a huge rock I saw!
It started to roll down the hill.
How quickly we had to run! As
fast as we could, we lay on the
floor in front of a small cliff. The
rock hit the top and bounced
over the top of us. What a close
call that was! We watched it roll
down the hill away from us.
