Semi colon - Punctuation and SPaG lesson

This is a fully resourced lesson about using semicolons/semi colons. This is also available as part of a Punctuation and SPaG scheme of work here. Ideal for KS3 and KS4 students with a fun and light-hearted feel. Could also be taught to higher ability KS2 students.

Would suit a range of abilities as there is lots of scope for stretch and challenge, with ambitious success criteria and extension tasks built in throughout. Scaffolding and differentiation options are built in where appropriate.

Fully resourced and ready to roll, minimal adaptation or tweaking required.

This is obviously a SPaG/Punctuation lesson, but it is equally focused on creative/descriptive writing too. Much of the content is therefore ideal for teaching general creative writing skills or preparing for the fiction writing task on the new specification GCSE English exam. I have used the Greek myth of Daedalus and Icarus as stimulus material for the tasks (which has proved popular with those I’ve taught).

There’s at least a lesson’s work here; it usuallytakes a couple of lessons to get through all the content due to the detailed and structured nature of the writing task.
