Welcome back to our weekly homework! I hope you all enjoyed the break from it over the holidays!
Grammar: We have been recapping subordinate clauses and conjunctions this week. From the recent tests it showed that the class are amazing at recognising a subordinate conjunction and can circle this in a sentence but the majority need to remember that if a question is asking for identifying the subordinate clause then the rest of that clause also needs to be circled/underlined!
With this in mind watch the video below and sing along and then have a go at the LBQ task! I have also uploaded a word mat that I use in class that has all the subordinate conjunctions on them that the children will need.
