Single-clause sentences in MI

Today we consolidated our learning on single clause sentences. We recapped the terms clause, independent clause and single-clause sentence. In order to do this we rewrote a series of sentences showing where the verbs and subjects are in the sentences then we had to decide on where the punctuation needed to go. We explained why the punctuation was needed in the different places in the sentence using the vocabulary full independent clause, subject and verb. We took part in a series of consolidation activities before moving onto building single-clause sentences with a focus on pronouns. We highlighted nouns and noun phrases that had been repeated and used other pronouns to replace these. Our activity allowed us to demonstrate our learning so far where we identified single clause sentences which used pronouns. We will continue to build on this tomorrow 🙂
