SPaG activity 8

SPaG activity 8

(0)
Follows on from SPaG activity and activity 2. The aim of the game is to make a sentence (or two) that gets you across the board. There are two teams / players against each other, who will be first to complete the journey from A to B. each player takes it in turn to pick a card from the pile to see the next word they should play ( verb, noun, punctuation etc.) if they cannot play the card they miss a turn. You can simplify the game by the types of cards you put in the pile,depending on the groups ability you have. Good luck. If you download this and get some really good sentences I would appreciate a picture or explanation of the board on the feedback section. Thank you
SPaG activity 9 - Active and Passive voice
colin959colin959

SPaG activity 9 - Active and Passive voice

(0)
SPaG activity 9 looking at the active and passive voice. Rules Both teams start at the starting point on the plank. The Pirate King / Queen acts as plank master and asks the questions. They then take it in turns to roll the dice. They then decide if they wish to move their counter towards safety or move the oppositions counter towards danger and the edge. To move towards safety they must turn an active sentence passive. To move the opposite player towards danger they must turn a passive sentence active. The Pirate King / Queen asks the question. If you get the sentence wrong you do not move and it becomes the oppositions turn. Good luck and avoid walking the plank.

SATs revision fun

(0)
Do you remember the game runaround from the 80’s? Here are a selection of SATs style multiple choice questions for maths and English (SPAG). Then using the basic rules of runaround the children have thirty seconds to work out the solution and get to A, B or C. If you have a sneaky class you could also add in the extra rule that after 30 seconds they have another ten seconds to change their answer. Will they play sneaky or be fairer. It could be a good way of revision and exercise to relax the class and unwind at the same time.
