This lesson presentation aims to introduce children to ways of joining ideas other than using conjunctions like ‘and’. In this case, it shows them that ‘The cat sat on the mat and hissed at the dog’, becomes ‘Sitting on the mat, the cat hissed at the dog.’
There is some revision at the beginning of using ‘and’ to join ideas. This includes the misconceptions and errors that can occur throughout the primary key stages, namely using a finger space on its own between two ideas - the cat sat on the mat she hissed at the dog, and comma splicing - the cat sat on the mat, she hissed at the dog. This revision is from the presentation (available here) ‘Full stops KS1 LKS2 Intervention Lessons & Exercises’. It is up to the teacher whether to use the revision section or not.
The presentation is aimed at Lower Key Stage 2 but could also be used with Years 5 & 6. It may be used as one lesson or several.
This is a presentation that takes children through the construction of sentences that begin with fronted adverbials starting with prepositions. Each example is related to a clear picture so that children have a visualisation of the concept. The sentence construction is colour-coded to support children with building their own sentences of this type.
This presentation is one of three and may be used at the beginning, the middle or the end of the series, or on its own. The others are called ‘Fronted adverbials starting with prepositions 1. - examples’ and ‘Fronted adverbials starting with prepositions 3. - practise writing them’.
All three presentations are intended for Upper Key Stage 2.
These presentations can be bought individually or as part of a bundle of three.

A phonic approach to teaching the Year 5/6 statutory spelling words. A unit of fourteen sets and lessons, 7 per half term.
Words are grouped by the irregular sound that they have in common e.g. the ‘ai’ sound in ancient, pronunciation, exaggerate, neighbour, accommodation. **
Lesson activities involve children using variants of the target sound to complete words, in this case, -ncient, pronunci-tion, exagger-t-, n-bour, accommod-tion.
Answers are provided.
Lessons include extensions for fast finishers.
Sets can be used for weekly spelling test lists.
**so words with more than one irregular part can occur in more than one set e.g. accommodation appears in the ‘mm’ and ‘cc’ sets.
