African Factfile:
Research lots of information about Africa. Present your findings in a way that interests you.
Could you use a range of geographical language?
Equator, continent, river, climate, etc
Writing: sentences openers using a comma
Your stories were absolutely fantastic! Well done! Something that can make your sentences even better is to use a comma to show your openers.
There are lots of different sentences openers: time, adverbial, prepositional, opening with a subordinate conjunction etc.
Choose a subject (it’s up to you) and write some sentences with a range of openers using a comma.
Here are some examples:
TIME:
Meanwhile, Nala and Simba went to the Elephant Graveyard.
PREPOSITIONAL:
Inside the Elephant Graveyard, the hyenas cackled loudly.
ADVERBIAL:
Quickly, Zazu flew to find Mufasa!
Have a lovely day!
