Grammar 5 Teacher's Guide

Schofield & Sims Grammar and Punctuation is a comprehensive programme for teaching grammar and punctuation while also building on vocabulary, reading and writing skills. The Grammar 5 Teacher's Guide supports the explicit teaching of grammar and punctuation through structured lessons, stimulating focus texts and easy-to-use assessment.

Comprising six pupil books and six accompanying teacher's guides, one for each primary school year, Schofield & Sims Grammar and Punctuation is a comprehensive programme for teaching grammar and punctuation while also building on vocabulary, reading and writing skills. Through structured lessons, stimulating 'focus texts' and engaging practice activities, children not only learn the correct terminology and usage of grammar and punctuation, but also build up the skills, knowledge and confidence to apply them successfully in their own writing. Covering the National Curriculum requirements for Year 5, the Grammar 5 Teacher's Guide contains supporting material for the 30 lessons found in the Grammar 5 pupil book (ISBN 9780721713984). Based on the model 'teach, practise, apply and assess', the guide provides you with everything you need to help children master the complexities of grammar and punctuation, including detailed teaching notes; a short focus text designed to help you to teach each learning point in context; reinforcement activities for each lesson; answers to all the questions in the pupil book; an end-of-year test with a mark scheme and analysis sheet; and a comprehensive glossary of grammatical terms to support teacher development. A selection of free supporting downloads is also available from the Schofield & Sims website.
