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/
