Week 1: Prefixes and Clauses Focus Areas: Recognizing prefixes such as “dis-”, “un-”, “im-”, and “il-” to change word meanings (e.g., “logical” to “illogical”). Differentiating between main and subordinate clauses in complex sentences. Punctuating subordinate clauses accurately. Question Types: Multiple-choice questions to identify correct prefixes. Underline the subordinate clause in a sentence. Rewrite sentences by adding a subordinate clause using conjunctions like “because” or “although.” Week 2: Suffixes and Relative Clauses Focus Areas: Adding suffixes such as “-ness,” “-ment,” and “-ful” to root words to create nouns or adjectives. Identifying and writing relative clauses with “who,” “which,” “that,” and “where.” Applying commas to separate relative clauses. Question Types: Fill-in-the-blank to add appropriate suffixes to given root words. Identify the relative clause in a sentence and underline it. Write sentences including a relative clause to add detail to a subject or object. Week 3: Fronted Adverbials and Dashes Focus Areas: Using fronted adverbials to add variety and clarity to sentence openers Employing dashes to insert extra information or emphasize ideas in writing. Question Types: Match fronted adverbials (e.g., “Without hesitation”) with appropriate main clauses. Rewrite sentences to include dashes for clarity (e.g., “James—a skilled musician—played the piano beautifully”). Identify fronted adverbials in a text and add them to sentences. Week 4: Sentence Types and Direct Speech Focus Areas: Distinguishing and constructing the four sentence types: statements, questions, commands, and exclamations. Punctuating direct speech with quotation marks, commas, and attributions. Question Types: Sort sentences into categories (statement, question, command, exclamation). Rewrite sentences to correctly punctuate direct speech (e.g., “Where are you going?” asked Sarah). Write short sentences of each type, ensuring correct punctuation is applied. Week 5: Grammar Consolidation Focus Areas: Combining grammar elements taught in previous weeks (prefixes, suffixes, clauses, fronted adverbials, sentence types, and punctuation) in extended writing. Editing sentences for grammatical accuracy. Question Types: Spot-the-error: Correct grammar mistakes in a paragraph. Write extended sentences incorporating at least two grammar features (e.g., a fronted adverbial and a relative clause). Combine two simple sentences into one using a subordinate clause or relative clause.
