Year 6 Spring Revision Set 9

Teacher Specific Information

This Year 6 Spring Revision Set 9 activity includes five questions designed to check pupils’ understanding of some of the grammar concepts taught across key stage 2 so far. Pupils will identify words which can begin with the prefix ‘dis-‘, identify modal verbs in sentences, recognise synonyms, use the active form in a sentence, and recognise where direct speech is used and puncuated correctly.

This activity is linked to the Classroom Secrets Year 6 GPS scheme of work.
Questions in this activity are based on content taught so far this year.
