Also available as a great value scheme of work here!

If you are anything like me, you probably realise that just because students get into KS3 (and even KS4), it doesn’t automatically mean they know how to use punctuation properly, especially commas.

This is a complete PowerPoint of thoroughly planned lessons which are designed to allow students to truly master the comma and its complex uses. The activities are lively and engaging, and the PowerPoint has a fun and relevant feel to it (using memes, cracking jokes etc) so that the idea of learning about commas (again) doesn’t feel childish or lame to them.

As a minimum, you have 2 lessons worth of work here, closer to 4 if you decide to do the writing tasks thoroughly. To accompany the PowerPoint, there are two worksheets which tie in nicely to the PowerPoint and allow students to put into practice what they are being taught.

I’m guessing this is probably going to suit lower to middle ability students: those on the border who tend to really struggle with SPaG and literacy. That said, I’ve often found it necessary to do the 2nd lesson (on subordinate clauses and very complex sentences) with my top sets too.

Absolutely ready to roll and fully resourced. Very little adaptation or tweaking required as scaffolding and extension tasks are built in. Enjoy!

Excellent lesson! It's very clear to students and mine definitely found it beneficial. The pace is good too due to the short tasks.
