Year 5 Prose - Combining Different Types of Sentence



L.O. To combine different types of sentence in a short paragraph

This term we have spent some time focussing on the use of the comma; next term, our focus will be on bringing all our prose work together.

Homework: Write a description of the office in this picture, using all of our descriptive techniques - your challenge is to use all the sentence:
* Fragment
* Impact
* Simple
* Compound (using the 'joining comma')
* Complex

Feeling clever? Include all four of the commas we have studied - listing, adverb-starter, joining and bracketing.

Don't forget to annotate your finished paragraph, showing the different paragraphs you've used.
