This week’s homework is practice makes perfect. It is due in on Wednesday 23 January 2013.
I can use speech marks.
The children have some sentences in which they need to add the speech marks to – we’ve been learning this in class. They need to put the speech marks before the first spoken word and before ‘said’.
Some children have also been asked to add ‘action enders’ to their writing (only if they’ve been working on it in class).
Here’s an example:
- “It’s snowing outside!“ said Aleena.
- “It’s snowing outside!” said Aleena, looking out of the window.
