Functional Grammar: Sentence construction lesson pack
5 lessons
- Purpose
- To give students a solid grounding in grammatical metalanguage so they can more fluently analyse, adapt and revise text.
- Description
- The lessons in this pack introduce students to the most flexible and widespread grammatical unit of language: the sentence. We start with simple sentences, and explore how sentences relate different real world elements together to create meaning. From there we build up to more complex meaning, combining events using connectors to show relationships, and writing complex sentences. Finally, we look at the function of different types of sentence (statements, questions, etc.) and how they can create different effects at a paragraph level.
