Literacy Lesson: Modal Verbs

This series provides individual lessons, for 11-14 year old students, at approximately 45 minutes per session. The lessons aim to move beyond students' simply identifying words, phrases and clauses, but rather allowing them to discover and discuss the effects that a writer's grammatical choices have in a text. The lessons are simple and straight forward, designed to provoke thought and understanding of the English language. A lesson where students investigate how modal can affect the formality and style of our writing, by through experimentation and reflection of a short piece of fictional writing, where understanding of modal verbs and imperatives leads to a greater understanding and analysis of character. Suited for YR7 and 8.
