Sentence of the Day

Date: 31st Mar 2020 @ 11:26am

Good morning year 6, today our sentence of the day will be a little bit different. What I would like you to do is to look at how I have written a list using a colon to start it and have written expanded sentences in the list which I have separated using semi colons- a very tricky type of sentence to write. 

I want you to use mine as an example and try writing one of your own. You can use the same information I have used but put it in a different order or you can think of your own ideas. 

Particularly over the past few days, I have noticed that, as a household, we could be contributing more to looking after our planet and doing our bit: recycling more, reducing the amount of rubbish going to landfill; using less electricity by switching off lights in rooms that are not occupied; switching to at least one plant-based meal per week, such as using a meat alternative like Quorn; and reducing the amount of water wasted daily, by not keeping the tap running whilst cleaning our teeth or choosing to have a quick shower rather than a bath.

I have also pinked lots of good features included in this super sentence- can you spot them all?

Please send your own versions to the blog or our email
