Spelling Punctuation and Grammar Day
On Friday 8th May children were immersed in activities to learn more about spelling strategies, punctuation and grammar. Teachers planned engaging activities to show that learning can be fun and exciting. We have been keen to improve and develop our teaching in these areas and 'SPAG DAY' was a good opportunity to showcase how far we have achieved this. Examples of activities included:
Y1 Spelling Relays and Spelling Hangman
Y2 Punctuation searches and Dice games
Y3 Hunt for Adverbial Phrases around the school and field
Y4 Learning vocabulary through drama and rhyme
Y5 ICT activities and games to learn grammar
Y6 Physical activities and games to learn SPAG
There was also information and pictures of the day displayed in the school hall with booklets for parents, who were invited in to see all the activities, to take away. These are available in the 'Resources for Parents' section of the school website. http://www.lordsgateschool.co.uk/resources-for-parents/
